The Woman at the End of the World, inspired by the album "A Mulher do Fim do Mundo (2015)" by singer Elza Soares, tells the story of Benedita and the girl Lua, two black women who saw the old world succumb and are now the only ones survivors. In this post-apocalyptic scenario, the short film portrays a journey through the search for breaking the silence, thinking about the innumerable processes of silence passed by the characters in the old world. In this sense, the end of the world is also a character, being the personification of a state of mind that permeates the loneliness of the black woman. The short film reveres female power, rescues memories, discusses affection and thinks about paths to be followed.
Silvia needs to get rid of a rat that has invaded the kitchen where she works while dealing with the growing abuses of her boss Suzana.

Themes such as death, healing, the body, marriage and desire are tantamount in stories in which women revisit their past in search of liberty.

A thicket. A trail of blood. While one flees, another chases him. It's a race. While one is human, the other has ceased to be. It's a hunt. While one species will survive, the other will be extinct forever. It's a struggle. And whoever loses, dies.
After hearing about a Brazilian folklore party at the neighborhood school, Fernando, an 8-year-old child, decides to go dressed as Curupira, with a skirt and everything, and suggests it to his grandfather, Mr. Lino, 70 years old.

Through subtleties in the dialogues and the silence, social conventions and the responsibility of being the guardian-protector of something precious, the film evokes conceptions of the masculine within a queer childhood.
