It is a film that holds the viewer's attention from start to finish. The plot is very interesting and fun, showcasing various aspects of everyday life in northeastern Brazil, as well as its folklore. I particularly watch the film in question whenever I can, and I like it more and more each time. The costumes are very good, considering the characters are properly characterized as true Northeasterners, unlike what is shown in several soap operas on broadcast television. Marcos Palmeira delivers a great performance in this film, showing once again that he is a remarkable actor for comedy films. There is also participation from a large cast, featuring actors celebrated by both the public and critics. Those who have not seen the movie and enjoy a good comedy should run to see it.

An epic fantasy adventure through the Brazilian northeast, distinguished by its outstanding cast. Also noteworthy are the captivating cinematography and the engaging soundtrack.

Imperdível!

É um filme que mistura religião, tradições nordestinas e regionalismos de forma hilária e muito bem estruturada.
