A happy couple seeks a way out of their criminal family business, but their efforts only push them deeper.

Brazilian director Fernando Coimbra, known for “Sand Castle” and “A Wolf at the Door”, is back with a mafia comedy set in Rio, filled with chaos and thrills.

In a Rio de Janeiro dominated by crime, Regina and Valerio find themselves involved in debts and betrayals inherited from his family. One night, they hit on a perfect solution. But by putting it into practice, they are drawn into a spiral of apparently endless violence.

For its ambitious dive into the depths of the underworld, the beating heart of the film is the relationship between Regina and Valerio. He’s willing to execute on her wickedly risky ideas, and her insatiable thirst for dominance offers an exhilarating, unpredictable view into the abyss. Leal and Santos are both renowned stars in Brazil. It’s time for the wider world to witness their talents as their vibrant characters try to outrun justice, death, and themselves.

The film premiered at the Toronto Film Festival.
