Synopsis: TOOTH FAIRY tells the story of André, a 30-year-old translator and occult enthusiast from Rio de Janeiro who undergoes dental treatment with Amalia, an unusual dentist who is also a witch. Unfortunately for André, Amalia discovers that he has something she wants - a book inherited from Alcydes, his master in the occult. Although André refuses to sell her the book despite her generous offers, Amalia is willing to great lengths to get her own way. Not wishing to give up the precious gift and not taking the situation too seriously, André only realizes that Amalia is more dangerous than she appears when he is already entangled in a battle between wizards, sorcerers, and occultists that is destined to end strangely. With a style that is both biting and generous, this narrative lavish in sex, drugs and action examines the superstitions that people call magic, raising the possibility that it exists, but just not in the way we normally understand it.
