Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
Jose Guerra (Flavio Migliaccio) is given a check by a strange Hindu man. He takes it to a local bank where they refuse to cash the check. A computer calls for the man's arrest until it is discovered the check is worth 10 trillion dollars, at which time the money is deposited in a state bank and Jose is sent into exile for his own protection. After marrying his sweetheart Rosinha (Marilia Pera), he dreams of buying the Statue of Liberty and the world's biggest soccer stadium. The common man with uncommon riches now covets the freedom his money cannot buy in this symbolic story.
