"Arrabalde" segue dois amigos que não conseguem encontrar o caminho na cidade de Lisboa. É um filme, que poderia ser um poema, que não tem género e serve de ponte entre as narrativas, formas e sonhos dos personagens com quem se vão cruzando.

It's summer in the Portuguese countryside, where the local festivities take place. Chico is haunted by a hate crime committed in his village against a boy who was secretly close to him. Throughout this journey, Chico, pressured by his friends, tries both to follow their social standards and to hide his fears and desires.
