José, a gas station employee, passes off as a rich businessman from a traditional family in order to romance a socialite's daughter. His childhood girlfriend gets jealous. Her aunt sides with her and denounces him. That aunt is a wannabe singer who is made a mockery of in a performance at a posh nightclub. José finds comic potential in her and decides to open a nightclub at a favela (very poor community generally built in a hillside area) where she and other performers connected with popular culture would have their space.
Musical comedy which makes fun of socialites and social columnism. It's very dated, and the humor is unsophisticated, but the dialogue is vivacious and not wholly devoid of social observation.
