The people of Cape Verde are suffering from a lack of rain. In some parts of Praia, there are only water stations with a few taps, which are open just once a day for three hours to serve 3,000 residents. There are always arguments. Those who arrive first always take more than their fair share. Those at the end of the line often go without water. An elderly blind woman named Balila makes a living selling water. She regularly brings water to the homes of the better-off and sells it to them. The film follows Balila’s life as it might unfold over the course of a single day.
