In Brazil's countryside, small rural communities hold stories of people who detached themselves from their roots in search of a better life in urban centers. The population of these districts, depleted and aged by the migration of their youth, lives in a culture of 'absence,' nurturing longing for the children, grandchildren, and siblings who left the countryside behind in pursuit of the big city dream. The documentary provides a glimpse into the solitary daily lives of the residents of Belisário and portrays rural exodus from an inverse perspective: through the changes in the dynamics of the families remaining in the countryside. In other words, the changes in the lives of those who stay when others depart.
