Plot
editThe plot revolves around Ian, a 16-year-old rebel teenager, who for his graduation video faces a botarga (mascot) and is forced to work to amend his mistake. Everything will get tangled up when Ian learns that his dad is not his real father. The two have a very close relationship, they are even similar, so this news causes both to be disappointed. Ian embarks on a journey with the objective of finding André, his biological father, who lived his glory days in the 80s as a telenovela actor, but is currently an alcoholic who works as a botarga. What started as a nightmare becomes a lucrative business of clandestine fights and extravagant people who spend the day dressed up as pets.
