Based on interviews with married women, aged 20 to 40, from different social classes, the film portrays with a certain irony the hardships and the petty side of marriage. An actress plays five different women who, living in banal situations, reproduce multiple facets of subordination to the role of a good wife.
Directed by Marília de Andrade, Eliane Bandeira
