A vintage Fabiola

In Lagoa da Italianinha, a young woman draws attention because, in the year 2025, she dresses and behaves as if she were in the 1950s. Her name is Fabíola, and she lives alone in an apartment in a building in the city center.

In her apartment, there is nothing modern. Cell phones and computers are out of the question. She uses a typewriter to write her poems and chronicles. All her clothing is from the 1950s.

Ironically, Fabíola sparks the interest of a young man who is her neighbor, named Tiago, who is futuristic and addicted to video games.

Because Fabíola is vintage and refuses to embrace modernity, she has difficulty finding employment. She decided to become a street vendor and sells various items on the streets.

She is Eraldo's sister and a friend of Valdenes, whom she even helped when he and Josiane, who had run away from home, were hiding from the henchmen of Josiane's father, Moab, who was a mayoral candidate in 1996.

But some consider her merely "stubborn" or "crazy," since Fabíola insists that Rio de Janeiro is the capital of Brazil – Brasília is just "bush" and doesn't exist – that there are still two Germanys and the Berlin Wall, and that the Soviet Union still exists and is a superpower. One of her greatest enemies is her neighbor, the singer Wiviane, who has harbored hatred for her since their school days, in addition to some major villains, such as Danúzia, Wêdja, Wéllia, and the chic beggar Warlla, who hate Fabíola for constantly interfering with their plans.
