Summary
Screenwriter Milo Noirlac is dying. As he lies in his hospital bed, voices from his past and present - real and imagined - come to him in the dark, each taking on the rhythm of his favourite Brazilian fight-dance, the capoeira. Seated next to him, Milo's partner, bumptious director Paul Schwartz, coaxes Milo through his life story. With Milo's imagination in full flight, several generations of Noirlac ancestors come to life. As each voice cascades through Milo's memory, an important piece of family and world history is formed. c2014
