A distinguished member of society is on a crusade against immorality and pornography. He and a few ladies who share his concerns have founded an organization for that purpose; they regularly meet. Through those ladies, he receives alarming news: a building he owns, and collects rent from, is not the school for young women it purports to be, but rather a brothel.
The main character and the basic structure of the plot are the same as in O Puritano da Rua Augusta, from eight years earlier, which has been updated and adapted for the needs of sexploitation. O Libertino manages to be even worse than its predecessor; perhaps part of the blame is to be laid on the cuts it allegedly suffered from censors, but it's hard to imagine a much better movie could be made by simply adding stuff to the dismal present remains of it. I am trying to watch every movie made by Victor Lima, and so far this is his worst. His main virtue, that of a nice flow of the narrative, is here also, but it counts for little in such an uninspired and predictable script.
