English title (Australia): Fury of the Avenger
A rancher hunts down the man who raped his sister. He has only some of the culprit's physical traits to guide him. Along his vengeful journey, he meets two beautiful women, one of whom becomes attached to him. He also has an encounter with a notorious outlaw.
The plot is similar to that of Cangaceiros de Lampião (1967) and probably countless other movies, mainly in the Western genre. The budget here is above average for Brazilian films; that makes for a few visually interesting scenes or sequences, even though the script is not very good, with an overuse of pseudo-poetical dialogue, and a plot which often borders on the nonsensical.
