Elizabeth Bishop travels to Rio de Janeiro to visit with Mary. The shy Elizabeth is overwhelmed by sensuality. She's the antithesis to Mary's dashing partner, architect Lota de Macedo Soares. Although freezing initially, the architect soon makes a drama to Elizabeth and the advances of Lota are finally succumbed to by the poet.
