About the film
Tati is 13 years old and lives on Maciel Island with her father, who hardly takes care of her. She is an unstable girl, who does not fit into her environment and pursues the desire to be a boat driver: a job only performed by men and that is about to disappear. While learning to row the rotten river, the protagonist grows amid confusion, loss, sexual awakening, and the complexities of her environment.
