Basada en hechos reales, es la historia dramática y divertida de un honesto hombre de familia de clase media, de una tranquila ciudad del interior de São Paulo. Cadu es un pequeño abogado defensor público, un joven casado, que atraviesa una crisis económica por la inminente llegada de su segundo hijo. Una absurda red de malentendidos lleva a Cadu a ser injustamente condenado a 12 años de prisión por tráfico. En el violento desajuste de la prisión, impulsado por las circunstancias, Cadu se ve obligado a mentir para sobrevivir. En medio de la brutal fauna de bandidos encubiertos y asesinos impredecibles, corriendo el riesgo de ser desenmascarado en todo momento, con la vida siempre pendiendo de un hilo, Cadu construye, entre asustado y divertido, una personalidad intrigante, seductora y poderosa. La sorprendente trayectoria de Cadu es una reflexión humorística sobre la difícil relación entre el bien y el mal, y la infinita capacidad de adaptación del ser humano.
