In Fogaréu, Fernanda returns to her uncle's farm in Goiás, after living away for many years, bringing the ashes of her late adoptive mother back home. Her looks and her search for the truth about her roots shatter the facade of this middle-class family. For her landowner uncle, a conservative mayor who is campaigning for re-election, Fernanda's investigations and accusations are quickly becoming a threat. But she remains adamant in her bid for truth and justice. At the heart of this family drama is the confrontation with antiquated traditions, exploitative relationships, and those who profit from them. Fogaréu portrays an inspiring attempt to break through hardened structures, as well as the hope of a new beginning, by portraying the protagonist's search for her own origins within Brazil's colonial past.
