A medical center collapses in the final stages of construction. The engineer responsible is the ambitious Saulo (Selton Mello), who becomes the target of the press and his business partners. He is trapped in the rubble with workers and Marion (Carolina Dieckmann), a physician who is the daughter of the medical center's owner and with whom he had a relationship which ended badly. On the surface, friends and relatives of the victims deal with the pain of not knowing their fate, and Saulo's company tries to avoid being accused of causing the collapse.[2] [3]
The series spent two years in production, and was filmed in São Paulo from December 2016 to April 2017.[2] It featured actors from northeastern Brazil as construction workers, to give the story a realistic tone.[2]
