Fictional series in 10 episodes, about a 15-year-old girl, known as MPB (initials of her name: Maria Pereira Bastos) who has a great passion: her TikTok account for videos with Brazilian music. Her life spirals out of control when her father is released from prison and wants to rebuild his life, living with Maria. But MPB doesn't want to leave her grandmother's house. Furthermore, her mother no longer sends news from Germany, where she is studying. Everything is chaos in her life, and music is her great refuge. Each episode has a Brazilian song as its theme, which appears in various ways, in the soundtrack and in the plot. The series, budgeted at U$ 1,000,000.00, will be written and directed by Rossana Foglia and Rubens Rewald, who have already directed several features and series.
