Synopsis
Lurdinha raised her son and nieces alongside her husband, Túlio. Now that they’re all grown, she invites them over for a traditional arroz de hauçá lunch. A strong, controlling figure, she’s always been adamant about not being replaced, but on this day, she asks the younger generation to cook. As they reminisce, joke around, and have their share of misunderstandings, Lurdinha reveals the real reason for the gathering: she’s losing her sight. Now, it’s up to the younger ones to reassess their roles and care for the woman who has always cared for them.
