In a housing estate in Lisbon, a young gypsy lives a forbidden love.
Throughout life, it is our options, choices and environments to which we are exposed that define us. Decision-making is something that is not born with us but develops over time and is based on all our experiences, on what we were and what we are, making us different from those around us.
Nowadays there is still a lot of difficulty for people to express themselves in a society accustomed to judgments towards those who do not follow standardized norms.
We want to show the difficulty in taking a position different from the ideals of the world we live in and the strength and courage it takes to do so. Our goal with this series is that everyone can understand the problem, regardless of their culture, and that they become aware of this cause.
