Through interviews, we look into the life of the sculptress and avant-garde woman Maria Martins, who also happened to act as the muse of Dada artist Marcel Duchamp. Her work, combining Western and Surrealist influences, tore cultural traditionalism in Brazil and abroad.

Cleverly juxtaposing straight-to-camera interviews, epistolary writing and archive footage, this doc candidly portraits one of Brazil’s most radical female sculptors. A heartfelt rumination on fame, artistic identity, and the fine line that separates personal life from the act of creation.
