The film is divided into 3 parts: the family, the rich playboy, and the friend.
It is clear that the killer is a rich white man, probably the guys who parked in front of the emergency exit of the party where one character works as a receptionist.
Despite the monotomy of the region, flat and without mountains, the scene with the emus is very beautiful. The emus are being used as an alternative to combat pests in the soybean fields. In other words, the monoculture represents monotomy and prejudice, reaching the culture in the form of music, dance and behavior.
The film is very well put together and every detail is necessary to understand the next scene. A very relevant theme. Besides the question of prejudice, the film also makes us reflect on deforestation and the economic policy of Brazilian exportation. In spite of being a visually very beautiful film, in the end the sensation is of injustice and sadness about how the economic policy and impunity are in Brazil. Whoever has money can do anything in Brazil and "nothing happens". This is very sad.

5.9Plot summary
A broken body in a white dress, lying lifeless in a swaying soya field. The image of this motionless body lends an extra charge to everything that follows. Marcheti follows three protagonists in turn. They don't know one another, but are all in some way connected through Madalena. Luziane, a club hostess, knocks on her door for money. Wealthy Cristiano inspects the vast expanse of soya fields for his demanding father. Trans woman Bianca and her girlfriends divide Madalena's things between them while reminiscing. Marcheti shot the film in the agrarian region where he grew up, capturing with great visual flair this largely unfilmed rural part of Brazil. A place where big agricultural machinery crawls monster-like across the landscape and the farthest corners are known only to drones. A world that can also take on a spooky aspect - now and then, Marcheti inventively gives an eerie twist to even the most everyday scene. Madalena is above all a window on a world that is getting out of control. But Marcheti is also clearly making a statement about his country, which has the highest rate of murder of transgender people in the world. A plea for empathy, rather than pity.

Try another movie. This one is bad, very bad... terrible.
If I call it trash, I'd be cursing trash.
And as always, friends of actors and directors flock to IMDB to give high marks for rubbish like this.
Brazil is the country that kills the most transsexuals in the world!
