When the pandemic starts, Dona Isadir doesn’t think twice about renting out her apartment in Cachambi, in the North Zone of Rio de Janeiro, so she can be closer to her family. She decides, unilaterally and without warning, to move into the mansion owned by her son Carlos in Barra da Tijuca, much to the dismay of her daughter-in-law, Alice.
Her grandchildren, Jonas and Márcia are caught in the crossfire, while the family’s longtime employee, Marinez, has a front-row seat to the fireworks. With lockdown in place, she makes herself at home and locks horns with her annoyed daughter-in-law.
