Vinicius Gageiro Marques, a talented Brazilian multi-instrumentalist, dies by suicide at the age of 16, a victim of his fragile sensitivity. His songs, composed with limited means in his bedroom and only coming to light now (they lay on his PC, seized for the investigations), nearly 3 years after the tragic event, blend Bossa Nova roots with the melancholic songwriting of Nick Drake and the more free and creative indie-rock. A tear-jerking story without a happy ending.
