Overview
Lucas is a young man who lives with his religious aunt Lourdes in a quiet country town. He helps his aunt by holding religious meetings with the ladies of the area, in the living room, playing biblical songs on the keyboard. This quiet life will end as soon as the charitable aunt communicates the arrival of another nephew, Mario, just out of jail. The clash of reality between the cousins ends up causing unusual situations, and an unexpected attraction among the boys.

This is really quite an enjoyable little story of a young lad "Lucas" (Paulo Sousa) who lives with his aunt. When his wayward cousin "Mario" (writer/co-director Thiago Cazado) comes to stay with them after a spell in jail the boys hit it off in an unexpected manner; one that the devoutly religious, and particularly naive "Auntie Lourdes" doesn't clock - or does she? It's kind and romantic - there are no angry or intolerant overtones; just a gentle consideration of the reconciliation of Catholic values and gay life with a bit of added mischief from the put-out "Julia" (Duda Esteves) who has long since had a bit of crush on "Lucas" and who is not best pleased. The two lads have a lot of chemistry between them and the ending is suitably redeeming. It's fun!
