Plot
André Cajarana was raised under the illusion that his father was a great man. When his grandfather, with whom he lived, dies, he leaves for Rio de Janeiro to shed light on his father's death, who was considered a criminal, and clear him of the accusation of stealing land and killing a priest. The main obstacle is Bruno Baldaracci, a mafia businessman, the person most involved in the infamy, his father's former partner, now married to his mother, Gilda.
Carina is a famous ballerina, raised in a traditional and wealthy family, the Limeira Brandãos, led by the domineering matriarch Dona Januária. To take over the family business, the unscrupulous César marries Carina, even though she is a single mother. After they separate, Carina meets and falls in love with André, who obtains power of attorney from her to manage the family business, in a plot that leads to César's murder.
