A dry, cheeky satire of money and marriage that plays like a naughty business farce, more wry than laugh-out-loud.

In financial trouble, the husband Afraninho devises a strange kind of business, for foreign executives, in which the product is his own wife Malu. They succeed, and soon other couples start doing the same thing, establishing the competition.
How it feels: Satirical, cynical, absurd and light. Measured and easy to follow.
