A true story, Cazuza is a "daddy's boy", a dysfunctional, drug and booze addicted gay man, yet magnetic for his love of freedom and as the lead singer for his garage band, Barão Vermelho. His father is an executive at a major record label who arranges a job for him at his company in the hopes of straightening him out. But Cazuza's supervisor, Zeca, spots his musical talent and convinces his father to release the band's debut album to great success. At the peak of his career, Cazuza leaves Barão Vermelho to launch a solo career and finds out that he is HIV positive.

Based on the book "Só as Mães São Felizes" (Only Mothers are Happy) by Cazuza's mother Lucinha Araújo.
