The stars of the Brazilian production of The Mystery of Irma Vep team with director/co-screenwriter Carla Camurati for a screen adaptation that finds Marco Nanini and Ney Latorraca each assuming duel roles as the remaining parts are filled by actors Thiago Fragosco, Marcos Caruso, Fernando Caruso, and Leandro Hassum. Latorraca portrays ex-stage star and struggling director Darcy and her overbearing mother while Nanini settles into the wheelchair of neurotic ex-star Tony and his booze-guzzling sister Cleide.
