Antônio Abujamra
A middle-aged, wealthy man who lives in an upscale neighborhood in São Paulo, goes to put on his shoes and finds that his foot is no longer the same – it has changed for the worse. This gesture is the trigger for a reflection on life, the passage of time and the difficulty in understanding the present day.

Paul Singer, Uma Utopia Militante
Ugo Giorgetti
Paul Singer
Professor Singer can be assessed as an enlightenment: he was also an educator, even (or above all) when he made politics. A major character in the intellectual life of São Paulo in the last seventy years, he narrates his trajectory, from his arrival in Brazil in 1940, escaping the Second World War, in 2016, in the leadership of solidarity economy movements. The film tries to show the beauty of a man thinking.
