Madalena, a determined 17‑year‑old, inherits her late father’s ferry company and must support her many siblings. With no one else to run the business, she steels herself to compete against a rival operator. As the rivalry heats up, she finds herself drawn to the rival’s attractive son, though she refuses to admit her feelings, unsure how long she can sustain the denial.
