Storyline

Documentary about Brazilian poet Waly Salomão, for whom life was always a fictional film and poetry was a way to expose any naturalistic pretention. His convictions affected many friends like Antonio Cícero, Caetano Veloso and Carlos Nader, who documented Waly's life for 15 years. But how does one make a documentary about someone who believes everything is fiction?
