Blood of my Blood is about unconditional love – the love of a mother for her daughter and of an aunt for her nephew – and about the lengths those women are prepared to go to in order to protect the ones they love.
Márcia, a single mother with two grown-up children, shares her home in a social housing estate with her sister Ivete

One day, her daughter tells her that she has fallen in love with a married man. When Márcia finds out who he is, she realises that the relationship poses a terrible threat to her family.
