I developed such a grudge against Susana Vieira that most of her scenes seemed unnecessary and embarrassing to me. And worst of all, I'm going to be an old lady with her behavior. Of the three, she's the one I most resemble, tragic grudge, and a bit of the tranquility of the retired teacher, Rosi Campos, beautiful... Some good, funny scenes at the beginning, especially those that seem improvised. Otherwise, it becomes corny and pedantic, a shame, because the idea is wonderful, not so well executed, and Punta Del Leste is so beautiful... The ending is rushed, hurried, but the last scene was really cute and even moving...
Nelita, Nina and Rita are all in their 70s and have been friends since childhood. When they were young, they would walk around the Bixiga neighborhood in São Paulo as if it were their own home. They grew up with dreams: to remain friends and to do well in life to get rich. Only the first one came true. Nelita owns an antique shop, Nina owns a restaurant and Rita is a retired teacher. They live on tight budgets and have simple lives with their husbands, except for Rita - who is a closeted lesbian until the 21st century. For 50 years, they have played the lottery weekly and are used to losing, until one day they win. Not a lot of money, but enough to fix their lives, as long as their husbands don't find out first. After years and years of dedicating themselves to others - husbands, children, grandchildren, nephews, godchildren, dogs - they decide to use the winnings themselves. They lie to their husbands and go fishing in the Pantanal, travel to the Latin American Vegas: Punta del Este, where they treat themselves without limits.
