Plot

The film tells the story of the trickster, adventurer and conqueror Leléu and the dreamy girl Lisbela who loves to watch American films and dreams of the movie heroes. The story takes place in the 20th century in Pernambuco. Lisbela (Débora Falabella) is engaged with other man when Leléu (Selton Mello) arrives in the city. The couple is charmed and begins to live a story full of characters taken from the brazilian northeastern scene: Inaura (Virgínia Cavendish), a married and seductive woman, who tries to lure the hero (Leléu) and betray her husband bully and mercenary killer Frederico Evandro (Marco Nanini); Lieutenant Guedes (André Mattos) a stern father and chief of police; Douglas (Bruno Garcia) a Pernambucano man with Carioca accent and São Paulo's slangs, seen from the perspective of regional humor; and Corporal Citonho (Tadeu Mello) a corporal of detachment, who is cunning enough to satisfy his appetites.[4]

Lisbela and Leléu are going to suffer pressure from her family, the social milieu and also with their own doubts and hesitations. But in a final twist, full of bravery and humor, they follow their destinies. As Lisbela herself says, the fun is not knowing what happens, it is to know how it happens and when it happens.
