Jack Noah, film çekmek için gittiği hayali Güney Amerika ülkesi olan Paradorda hiç beklemediği bir başka iş teklifi alır. Aslında ondan istenen yine oyunculuk yapmasıdır; ama bu kez kameralara karşı değil, normal hayatta oynaması gerekmektedir. Jackten istenen, öldüğü herkesten gizlenen diktatörün yerine geçmesi ve diktatörlerine bağlı koca bir ulusu bu yalana inandırmasıdır.

Paulo is a rich lawyer who has a happy and comfortable family life, with his kid and very loyal to his wife. But when he finds out that the woman is cheating on him with his business partner and best friend, he decides to execute a perfect plan that involves murdering both and easily getting away with murder. However, Paulo's plans are about to be ruined due to some unpredictable factors involving powerful people, plenty of money, the kidnap of his son and a tenacious inspector following his steps.

A group of eccentric people gather at a popular bar in Ipanema, Rio de Janeiro.

The story takes place in São Paulo, in the late 1920s, and has Mariano's memories as its starting point. Orphaned, he loses the aunt who raised him and ends up in Madame Iara's brothel, where he meets two people who transform his life: Esmeraldo, a gigolo who loves the good life who becomes his master; and the prostitute Guadalupe, known as Lu, a sweet and extremely sensual woman. Esmeraldo is Lu's boyfriend, whom he loves unconditionally. Mariano enters the couple's lives and ends up falling in love with her, thus forming the love triangle that drives the entire narrative.
