Did you know

Final film of Paulo Villaça and only film performance of writer Caio Fernando Abreu. Both died from AIDS complications in the 1990's.

Film debut of Walter Quiroz.

The film reunites Paulo Villaça and Helena Ignez after their roles as robbers in the classic The Red Light Bandit (1968). This film is a tribute to the 1968 film borrowing several elements from it (such as the radio news voice talking about the crimes in the city; the duo of robbers with the same actors from the previous film, etc.).
