Mauro walks through the city buying stuff. He is a 'passador', in street jargon a grifter who palms off counterfeit currency. He and Luis decide to set up a little printing house to produce counterfeit money themselves. Mauro moves discreetly, always alone; until he meets Paula.
"I think that something interesting happens when you can't take distance from the facts and the characters of a story. You must move all the time looking for your subject. It forces you to avoid being biased towards the characters. The films I enjoy always represent this personal journey. So I decided to make this film with my family and with my friends, without having a defined plan. Shot from uncertainty. Because at the end, and after all, that is a little about what making films is about: a struggle between planning and random, the idea and the reality."
