Eight Seconds

By Kira Freitas

The lands of the small town of Santa Rosa dos Ventos hold many surprises and, for Maria Amália Campelo, it is not very different. She is a spirited young woman who grew up on one of the farms in the region. Used to dealing with horses and oxen, she has only one dream: to become the first woman to compete in the Pawn of Boiadeiro race in Barretos and to become a winner among men. Even under all the adversity surrounding her, including the lack of support from her father; the passion she nurtures for her best friend and the contempt of an arrogant pawn, she is determined to go all the way and, with a lot of courage, fulfill her dream and prove to everyone that she is much more than a girl with a bow tie and boots.
