In the middle of Praça da Sé, in São Paulo, Paloma – a dove like any other – swallows a chip and gains consciousness. But what was meant to be a blessing turns out to be something terrible: she, like all doves, always ate leftovers. In the face of this, Paloma goes after justice for the doves and, alongside Pru, find out more about who she has become and her place among the legs, rats and other inhabitants of the city.
