In the heart of Recife, a lonely young man seeks solace in self-pleasure. With no one else around, he takes matters into his own hands, literally. His punheta - a local term for masturbation - becomes a ritual of release. He strokes his hardening cock, feeling the familiar rhythm, the build-up of pressure. His breath hitches as he nears the edge, his body tensing, and with a final, firm stroke, he spills his load, his gozo - cum - painting his abdomen.
