C'est le moment de la Gay Pride à São Paulo, ce qui signifie soleil, sexe et beaucoup d'extravagance ! Mais quand un groupe de gays non assumés se retrouvent confrontés avec la violence homophobe, plutôt que de se faire discrets, tous décident de faire un pacte solennel : ils ont un an pour s'assumer et faire leur coming-out. "Boys in Brasil" est la parfaite illustration de ce qu'on gagne à s'assumer et à demander respect et acceptation.
