“Lying with faith is not always a sin.”
The lively João Grilo and the sly Chicó are poor guys living in the hinterland who cheat a bunch of people in a small town in Northeastern Brazil. When they die, they have to be judged by Christ, the Devil and the Virgin Mary before they are admitted to paradise.
This film feels like a vibrant, sun-drenched folk tale brought to life, brimming with mischievous charm and a spiritual undercurrent. It's a journey through human folly and divine judgment, wrapped in a distinctly Brazilian aesthetic. Expect a blend of humor and heartfelt reflection, delivered with a lively, theatrical flair.
