A Dog's Will

  • Log in or register to post comments

In a small town in the northeast of Brazil, the lives of two close friends, João Grilo and Chicó, take an unexpected turn when they get caught up in a series of comical mix-ups and absurd situations. João Grilo, a cunning and shrewd seller, is always looking for ways to survive, while Chicó is a dreamer who falls madly in love with the young and beautiful Rosinha.

One day, the impending arrival of a wealthy outsider stirs up a commotion in the town and awakens the greed of its inhabitants. At the same time, the friends attempt to help a group of poor people suffering under the yoke of a cruel landowner. João and Chicó’s antics include hilarious deceptions, a comedic encounter with death, and the intervention of religious figures that add a touch of surrealism to the story.

Through a journey full of humor and lessons about life, friendship, and redemption, the protagonists fight against injustices and, along the way, discover the true values of love and brotherhood. With an impressive cast and memorable dialogues, the plot weaves elements of northeastern Brazilian culture, including music, religion, and superstition.

With its blend of comedy, drama, and social commentary, the film becomes a reflection of the Brazilian soul, showing that, at the end of the day, wit and love can overcome any adversity.
