Mauro lives on the sidelines in Naples, but his heart flies off afar, to Mindelo, his homeland, to a Carnival which is a dream, promise and return. The film tells of time suspended by a desire: to return to Capo Verde, where childhood is the scent of a gentle breeze and tar, and where the Mandinga dance like ancestral spirits. It is a film on the right to move, love, exist and on the sweetness of belonging to oneself.
