Tetê se sent exclue aussi bien à l'école qu'à la maison. Aussi quand ses parents au chômage doivent déménager chez ses grands-parents dans le quartier de Copacabana, à Rio de Janeiro, la jeune fille de 16 ans prend une grande résolution. Dans sa nouvelle école, finies les moqueries, et bienvenue aux amis et à une vie sociale !

Documentary and staged scenes mix in this very personal story of a family in the suburbs of Rio, through the memories of a backyard, a giant tree, and the woman who planted it.

Helena and Luciana are two supermodels with completely opposite personalities: the first is stormy and spoiled, while the second - being older - is patient and restrained. Their fate changes when Helena becomes involved with Marcos, Luciana's father, an older man recently divorced from a former model, Tereza, who does not accept the end of the marriage.
