The Movie talk about two poor men's history, who've lived in northeast Brazil. They are called João Grilo and Chicó.
The plot happens in the "Sertão" (a region in northeast Brazil, very poor due to water shortage, and as a result of that, lack of food too).
The period portrayed in the movie is historical for Brazil, because tells about the "cangaceiros" - rebels who've looked for justice due to social inequality - who threatened Brazil's northeast.
The movie show, with a lot of humor, the way that João Grilo and Chicó have survived without money and prestige in a totally segregate society.
It's a movie that, at the same time, is a comedy and a drama.
