" [it] expresses the kind of religious fatalism that often accompanies a life of hardship and poverty." -- New York Times

Three blind sisters, united by their extraordinary fate, survive by singing and playing ganza for spare change on the streets and in street markets of poverty-stricken Northeast Brazil. In a bizarre twist of life imitating art, their lives are forever changed as a documentary film about them brings attention and acclaim. But they soon discover their fame is a double-edged sword; celebrity can be as much of a curse as it is a blessing.
