A Pessoa É para o Que Nasce plot

Three blind sisters from Campina Grande in Brazil have been earning money for years by singing in the street. They have beautiful, disarming voices. With the help of others, they can get by, although their stories show that they were often mistreated. It all started with their mother, who gave the money they earned to her boyfriends. They love the attention of director Roberto Berliner, who follows them for several years. As a result of the film, radio and television come to visit and perform in front of a few thousand people. But slowly the interest of the outside world fades. The sisters are again forced to beg: they are back to square one.
