Pamela, a timid 34‑year‑old cashier, spends her days working in a supermarket, attending a Brazilian‑led temple, and caring for her autistic mother. Her uneventful routine is shattered when mysterious signs—a charismatic transvestite client, dreams, barcodes and other uncanny messages—suggest she is destined to bear a messianic figure.
