In the tiny poor town of Asa Branca, in the middle of Brazilian Northeast, Roque Santeiro is worshiped as a saint. He was supposedly killed by a bandit, 18 years ago, trying to save the local church. After his disappearance, local leaderships such as landowner Sinhozinho Malta and mayor Florindo, took profit on that to control the humble population. They even make up a widow, Porcina, who should have married Roque secretly before his death. What they don't expect is that Roque is alive, and he's back to, allegedly, "save his people". Now Malta, Florindo, Porcina, and others must hold him down and explain the "truth" to their commoners, in a desperate attempt to save their own bottoms. Meanwhile, mysterious facts surround Asa Branca, such as a Werewolf, a film crew who are trying to shoot a movie about Roque's story, and violent murderers.

Água na Boca poster

After a period of study in Europe, Danielle arrives in Bento Gonçalves, Rio Grande do Sul, to teach gastronomy classes. Among her students is the clumsy Luca. As sour as a lemon, the young woman quickly clashes with the sweet-as-honey boy – so sweet it's almost cloying. Days later, the two attend the grape harvest festival. And the attraction, disguised as animosity – amidst the flour fight and pie-in-the-face – blossoms into romance. What Dani doesn't realize is that Luca is a descendant of the Bellini family, an Italian family who established the Mamma Mia Pizzeria in the same alley where the Cassoulet family, the young woman's clan, opened the Bistro Paris. The matriarchs Maria and Françoise were inseparable friends in childhood, but a love rivalry turned them into enemies, making their restaurants the stage for this amusing rivalry.
