Synopsis

In the peaceful town of Taperoá, João Grilo and Chicó enjoy a quiet life, connected to their community through the sacristan and baker. However, the townspeople live under the unchecked power of the bishop, priest, and major. Their tranquility is destroyed by a sudden attack from the bandit Severino, resulting in a deadly massacre. The survivors are then summoned to a trial in the heavens, where they must face God and the Virgin Mary for their actions. This spiritual tribunal forces them to confront their past and seek forgiveness while grappling with the consequences of living under oppressive rule. The story explores themes of justice, morality, and faith, examining human relationships and power. Combining drama, suspense, and spiritual elements, this film offers a powerful and thought-provoking experience.
