The son of a prostitute, Querô is a poor teenager who lives alone in the vicinity of Santos port, the biggest one in Latin America. Considering himself the owner of his own destiny, Querò refuses to give in to the oppressing discipline of reform schools, the easy game of drugs and especially to the corrupt police officers that are always one step behind him. However, he pays a very high price for this attitude.
Filho de uma prostituta, Querô é um adolescente pobre e órfão que vive sozinho na região portuária de Santos. Achando-se dono do próprio destino, Querô não se dobra à disciplina opressora da Febem, ao jogo fácil do tráfico de drogas e muito menos aos policiais corruptos que o perseguem, mas paga um preço alto por isso.
