*spoilers*
A socialite asks the owner of a shop in which she buys clothes to meet with the seller of a Chinese statuette and buy it for her. It's done. Next, the socialite asks the same person to deliver the money in payment for that statue. An accident occurs, though, and the box containing the money is thrown out with the garbage. Some bums who habitually scour the trash dump for food and valuables find some of the bills and, as they are in foreign currency, they exchange it at the bakery. Meanwhile, the shop owner is trying to locate the money. She decides to hire a detective, but he is dishonest and intends to keep the money for himself. After the payment deadline for the statuette is not met, the seller sends some thugs after the shop owner. A detail: the statuette is filled with cocaine.
Poorly made comedy with some famous names of Brazilian comedy. A few sequences are funny, e.g., the one at the psychedelic nightclub; on the whole the film is slightly curious but not very attractive.
