In a Land That No Longer Exists

Teaching Capoeira - that's his life. But when the martial arts master Ezequiel throws down out of frustration and pride, because not he, but the son of the boss becomes the new head of the school, he is without work. For an immigrant person of color without training, this is not an ideal starting point to quickly find a good job again. So he ends up as a "driver for monument protection" with the small business owner Reynaldo and his young colleague Jason. In truth, however, they clean public urinals at night - "monument hygiene," as they amusedly call it. Now it is a question of particularly beautiful, antique urinals and also an honorable job. For Ezequiel, the work in the "black night brigade" is well below his dignity. Neither his wife Marta, who works as a nurse, nor son Stevie, for whom Ezequiel is hoping for a brilliant academic education, he can tell - he thinks. Then Stevie tells him that instead of studying, he wants to become a hairdresser .
