The film rescues a character mentioned by writer Mário de Andrade in his works about Brazilian popular culture. Chico Antônio was a singer who lived in the Rio Grande do Norte State inlands. As he climbed the trees to pick fruits, he sang and enchanted those who passed by. Mário de Andrade was one of those spectators.
