Tiresia, an immigrant from Brazil, is a transsexual prostitute working on the street. An obsessive aesthete in search of perfect beauty takes her home with him and won’t let her go. However, due to a lack of hormones, Tiresia begins to take on male characteristics during her captivity. The punishment is brutal: She is blinded and abandoned in the forest. A girl takes in Tiresia and nurses him back to health. As time goes on, he develops visionary abilities and attracts the attention of the village priest, who puts an end to his activities.
