The passions and pains of a group of elders, sharing the same building, every weekday.

Overview

A group of elders spends their weekdays in a retirement home in Sandim, in the north of Portugal, where they talk, do arts and crafts, practice yoga and pray.

Meanwhile, arrangements are made for the Carnival ball. Will they bring the first place home this time?
