A Pequena Gilda no Museu.
Gilda is very curious and has always been interested in art, which she only knew from books. On her birthday, her father promises to take her to the museum near their house, but they miss each other! Gilda embarks on this adventure alone and there she meets Mr. Manuel, a new friend who works at the Museum and is also passionate about Brazilian art. Guided by Mr. Manuel, Gilda learns more about art and all its diversity, movements, as well as great Brazilian artists, such as Lygia Clark, Hélio Oiticica, Tarsila do Amaral, and Arthur Bispo do Rosário.
