O filme decorre em Cabo Verde, Brasil e Portugal em 1852. Um levantamento de tropas, na cidade da Praia, instigado por oficiais desterrados para o arquipélago, em consequência da derrota dos partidários do infante D. Miguel, na guerra civil portuguesa, é o núcleo histórico do filme. Os rebeldes, contrariando as suas próprias convicções antiliberais, tentam aliciar para seu campo a população escrava, à falta de outros meios humanos que lhes corporizem os desígnios. Conspiração político-militar por um lado, insurreição de escravos por outro, ambas associadas, mas transitoriamente convergentes, e a mistura não podia ser senão explosiva. Se o núcleo histórico do filme é abertamente conflituoso, o núcleo dramático não é menos, com uma tecitura melodramática, que nos remete, em pleno, para o período romântico, em que a acção decorre.

The movie follows Jace's inverted Odyssey in a dark universe of abuse, murder and fear, as he desperately (and silently) seeks for a "family" of his own or, at least, for a sense of belonging
