In an alternative reality where his career has gone down the drain, Nuno Markl has no choice but to embrace a job at a small local radio station lost in a suburb of somewhat uncertain location: Rádio Calipso. There, he struggles to survive, adapting to the whims of the director, Almeno Menano (Francisco Martiniano Palma), a man who still believes that 'Freddy Mercury's bed must have been like the Mafra Convent, given the rat infestation'; to the bouts of star syndrome from the local celebrity Vilela Henriques (João Pedro Barata), host of the show "Arruaça Musical"; and to the slow reasoning of the multifaceted Dário (Jorge Vaz Gomes), the radio station's janitor.
