CGiii Comment

Barred from attending her religious service, Mel does not give up professing her faith. Every night, she prepares posters and takes them to the church door, waiting for the day she will be able to walk inside again. Over the span of a far-right government and the hardships of an unforeseen pandemic, the documentary follows the transsexual hairdresser's struggle to assert her constitutional right to religious freedom. A poignant portrait of a character and a country in its far from ordinary complexities.


Impedida de frequentar o culto de sua preferência, Mel não desiste de professar a sua fé. Toda noite, ela prepara cartazes e os leva para a porta da igreja, à espera do dia que poderá voltar a entrar. Ao longo de anos marcados pela ascensão de um governo ultraconservador e pelas dificuldades trazidas por uma inesperada pandemia, o documentário acompanha a luta da cabeleireira transsexual por fazer valer o seu direito constitucional à liberdade religiosa. Um retrato pungente de uma personagem e de um país em suas complexidades nada ordinárias.
