Story
Deco and Naldinho are petty thieves. The two friends share a motorboat, which serves as headquarters for their “business”. However, the friendship becomes strained when stripper Karinna enters their lives. Both men inevitably fall in love and a furious three-way relationship ensues. The cliché of Brazilian promiscuity is served with a large portion of self-irony in this racy debut.
