Plot: Irene (Argentina), Matthias (Germany), Nabil (Syria), Laila
(Israel), and Karima (Angola) all arrive in Rio de Janeiro for different
reasons. Each experiences the beauty and chaos of this wonderful city and
each runs into trouble along the way. Fortunately, they meet a unique
"corner cutter" who helps them work through their dilemmas: Francisco, the
quintessential Carioca. In the process, they purge prejudices, open
themselves up to new cultures, adopt different perspectives, and become
advocates for inclusion and equality. Irene, a staunch atheist, has to
navigate religious syncretism in Rio in order to fulfill her mother's dying
wish. Matthias, a rigorous and inflexible symphony conductor, discovers that
improvisation is a pillar of creativity. Nabil, a refugee, intends to take
advantage of the freedoms native to Rio to provide a better life for his
family. Laila, who has just been discharged from the army, learns from a
young boy that the greatest way to take advantage of life's offerings is to
expand one's worldview. Karima, a renowned poet, teaches Rio's elite to be
proud of their African roots. In the final episode, it's Francisco who is in
need of help: he must employ every ounce of his Carioqueness to determine
his future in the city he loves Rio de Janeiro
