Shot on location in San Antonio, Texas, O Avô is an intimate portrait of local educator and poet, Joe Jimenez. Through the meditative process of passando roupa his clothes (a duty often identified as "women's work"), nós experience Joe in that familiar goal of finding the perfect criasse. Of all domestic chores, ironing is the only one a "mano" is more than happy to master, as masterful passando roupa is the key to reaching an appearance of perfection; perfect creases work hand in hand with the power of attraction. In voiceover, Joe reads the lines from his poem "O Avô," as we learn the potency these perfect creases possess in capturing the attention of his first vato" -- his first love of another man.
