Octávio Gabus Mendes

A country boy goes to São Paulo to enlist and leaves two girls in the countryside: one very simple and nice, who liked him, and another very pretty, who he liked.

Carmen, a poor and beautiful woman, lives in a shantytown in Rio de Janeiro. All men desire her, including her stepfather, but she only has eyes for her boyfriend, Milton. After being expelled from home, she finds out her lover is married. Unhappy with her life, she finds a place in a boarding house and tries to find a job, with no success. Tired and starving, she ends up passing out in the street, being helped by a passer-by, who leaves her at writer Flávio Martins's house, a man torn between the proposal of an arranged marriage, an old flame, and the new guest.

A man kills his wife on their wedding night, after discovering she had been unfaithful. After being acquitted, he moves to the country, where he becomes part of a love triangle.

A woman flees to an isolated island, expecting peace and inspiration to write a novel. Her arrival, however, threats the stability of the islanders' lives as it stirs conflict between two men.
