Gatto and Barbot are lifelong companions for more then 40 years and have just moved to a big decayed and abandoned building downtown Rio de Janeiro, where they start to live and promote their dance company rehearsals. The difficulties of everyday life are merged to artistic creation and to their belief in the Orishas gods. Through dance they spread through the city, occupying their territories.

The exaltation of the black queer person's body is one of the most striking elements of Full Of Affection, which is not afraid to confront conservatism and patriarchal structures surrounding the theme of the body, especially when it comes to the body of an LGBTQIAP+ person. The film is an invitation to celebrate diversity and freedom, showing that all bodies deserve to be loved and respected, regardless of their shape, size, or color. Full Of Affection is a film that challenges the conventions of traditional documentary and offers an intense and emotional cinematic experience that will certainly be memorable for the viewer.
