A documentary about the life of Braz Gonsalves, a jazz saxophonist born in Goa, a pioneer in the exploration and dissemination of the fusion of Western Jazz with Indian Classical Music. This musician created a strong connection to Portugal, going through teaching at Portuguese parish music schools in Goa in the 1940s, until visiting Portugal to play on several occasions. Here he also makes friendships that still last. But a sudden event puts an end to his relationship with Jazz.
