O Céu Sobre os Ombros plot

Docufiction about three 'ordinary' men in their thirties, who interpret their own urban existence; a transsexual academic, a harekrishna football supporter, and an indolent would-be writer (on nine books at once). Everlyn Barbin got a college degree, but since the transsexual started hormone therapy and dresses like a woman, she hasn't been able to find a job. She says she gets her need for love from her work as a street prostitute. Lwei, who claims to be suicidal, is half Angolan, half Portuguese, and has a spastic son. Although he has many plans for novels, he has never worked in his life and is supported by his second wife. Finally, Murari Krishna is a football supporter, celibate hare krishna, telephone marketer and graffiti artist.
