Jonas is a thirtysomething unemployed dreamer whose fantasies keep him from growing up. As a S. Paulo city dweller, he's tired of the daily massacre in the megalopolis--the lack of money, time, affection, and perspective. in spite of this, he still believes that a simpler life is possible. He then meets and falls in love with Lia, a young actress in the theater. His romantic obsession gradually lead him into an act of crime when his friend Tico suggests kidnapping a rich foreigner as the solution to all his financial problems. Conscious that political crimes have less-severe consequences, Jonas and Tico put together an ideological strategy for the kidnapping and involve Lia in their plans.
