Aleixo is 17 years old, he has the 91% of the skin burned and a lot of anger inside. He lost his first skin (and with it, his image and protection) when he was 9 years old, in an accident in which his father’s truck burned completely. He spent a year and a half in the hospital and had to recover from two cardiac arrests.
Despite this, he struggles every day against impertinent glances and the memory of the pain of the accident. What is there after overcoming death when you do not expect anything from life?
