A young automobile racer -- whose older brother died in mysterious circumstances while racing -- gets in touch with the corrupt world of corporate business when he is offered to sign in with a big corporation.
A mixed bag in terms of tone -- juvenile, at times even infantile, regarding style, character definition and visual design, yet with a semblance of seriousness in its theme. The seriousness cannot resist analysis, because auto racing is a very peculiar sport, in which huge compromises simply are inevitable, part of the game even, and machines are often of equal (some say greater) importance as humans. That renders some plot points and the protagonist's inner conflicts rather implausible. I guess this film is only for those who can enjoy, or at least withstand, unbridled frivolity.
Seen mostly dubbed in Portuguese.
