In an island where nobody works, the local Pindóca returns from India, where he studied to be a fakir and magician, and became crazy. Wearing top hat, cutaway coat and walking stick, he is completely different from the locals, being chased by two clumsy policemen.
This weird, crazy, silly and naive comedy is a rip-off of the American comedies, with Pindóca clearly imitating the movements of Charles "Carlitos" Chaplin. Filmed between Urca and Leblon, including the interior of a slum, and showing many women butts, the story does not make much sense and is suddenly finished and is available only in the Cinematec of MAM (Modern Art Museum of Rio de Janeiro).. My vote is six.
Title (Brazil): "Maluco e Mágico" ("Crazy and Magician")
