Outline

Moço is a young shepherd who lives in the mountains with his sheep. Besides guarding them, Moço also makes his days by sewing patches over the wholes in the sky. Memories of his long lost sister, Sécia, who lives in the other side of the sky, torment him at night, and Farândola, the old seeder of the stars, tries to put some sense into the boy’s heart. This is an animated folk-allegoric story, drawn with translucent touches.
