Translated Case Cover (Google Translate):
In a popular neighborhood in São Paulo, Alice a forty-year-old man works as a manicure at a beauty salon. She leads life to life as she can, and with the family that fate has given her: the mother Dona Jacira, her husband and her three children. After 20 years of marriage one does not expect great emotions, but little by little the secrets are revealed.

From IMDb:
Alice, married for the last 20 years to a taxi driver, works in a beauty parlour, has three children, the eldest of whom is doing his military service, and a mother who works as a maid in her house. None of the three siblings pay much attention to their mother, and they treat their grandmother with lack of respect. Alice's life in the female working world contrasts strongly with the powerful masculine presence in her home. Although she's a good girl, the chance to betray uncovers other betrayals she didn't know existed.
