Rúbia, Francisco, Miguel, Rita, Rosa, Rosalia, and Tójó live the night the same way they live life: intensely. In a strip-tease joint named Imperatriz in the city of Porto, these characters cross each other, they leave marks on each other, with no amendment. They poison each other, they cure each other. They are hungry one for the other, and they give all. They are on the very brink of love - absolute love. And, although it is dark, one can see the neon glow. There is something about daybreak that imposes hope. The certainty of a cure is lodged in the present time that is excessive and apparently indifferent to the future.
