I’ll Raffle off My Heart

Documentary about the music, the performers and the followers of Brazilian romantic music, genre called Brega (cheesy) by music critics, but omnipresent in the interior of the country and loved by lower classes. Using the music as a catalyst, the documentary shows the sentiments, suffering and sexuality of the fans and their idols, revealing their practices and desires. The themes of the songs are very close to the romantic dramas and experiences of real people, and the film faces the challenge of showing them in real situations talking about their lives.
