SYNOPSIS
Loosely inspired by the song of the same name by Jorge Ben Jor, Magnólia tells the fable of an astronaut goddess who lives in the blue and pink dimension, among stars and comets, until she encounters a black knight, Saint George. He entrusts her with a mission: to descend to Earth and experience what it means to be human. On Earth, after the fall, she undergoes various transformations until she becomes a Black woman. In this body, she experiences what this existence means, with all the pleasures it holds.
