Sometimes when you get some money to do some film and you want it back, you obtain some trash. Well, Carrera, the director, thought: I get a screenwriter to adapt a novel (from Queiroz): a scandal movie and what do I get: M0NEY!!!!!!!!!. Ok. But what about the film!! Garbage. Crap. The story is known. Amaro goes to a town. He's young. The rest of the priests are well corrupted or they hide something big under their heart. Guerrillas, abortion, etc. What is the result? Amaro finds Amelia. They make love. Pregnancy. Terrible sin. Scandal is the same as money sometimes. In this case, it is.
