Bay of All Saints plot

In Bahia, Brazil, generations of impoverished families live in stilt houses above the water. However, the government wants to reclaim the bay in the name of 'ecological restoration'. Hundreds of families are about to lose their homes. Here is a lyrical portrait of three single mothers who live there. Their stories are revealed through visits from Norato, a magnanimous man who repairs refrigerators and who himself grew up in a stilt house. The women fight for their home and slowly begin to experience their existence in a new light.
