They arrive at her family's large-scale farm, located in a secluded village on the endless plains of southern Brazil.

The film features beautiful cinematography and solid performances, but suffers from an excessively slow pace. Its long duration is aggravated by a narrative that makes minimal progress, especially in the first hour, where it circles around a mystery, resorting to repetition and redundant or irrelevant scenes. The attempt to create a gloomy atmosphere ends up in monotony. When the movie finally suggests a breakthrough through discoveries that could bring dynamism, it returns to sameness, keeping up the dragging pace and delivering the most obvious conclusions.
