Reunited for their mother’s funeral, four sisters – Selma, Regina, Laura and Lúcia – find themselves forced to divide much more than an apartment in Copacabana. While dividing the articles, the sisters compare options, destinies, lifestyles, and expectations. The turbulent sale of the apartment represents a turning point in their lives: they know they have never been so deeply involved as accomplices, or as sisters.
Acting
Four powerhouse performances, especially Glória Pires's controlling eldest sister.

Copacabana apartment becomes fifth character—claustrophobic and glamorous.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Filho adapted this from his own stage play, explaining the theatrical intensity and single-location pressure-cooker structure.
The 5.7 TMDB score reflects international audiences missing the specific Brazilian class dynamics—the apartment represents not just money but social mobility denied to women of their generation.
