The film portrays the State protection to families that dominated the country's economy, their strategies for power and wealth accumulation.
Mello, Champalimaud, Espírito Santo - big families intersect by marriage and integrate by finance. Threatened by the end of the dictatorship, their power is restored under democracy, through privatization and promiscuity with politics.
