Small-town trickster Pedro Malasartes has to face two great enemies: Próspero, who will do anything to impede such a lazy, cowardly person like Malasartes from dating his sister, Áurea; and Death incarnated, who wants to take a vacation after two thousand years collecting lives and intends on tricking Malasartes into assuming his tedious job.

Being very clever , he draws the attention of Death (Júlio Barbosa) who is willing to take a vacation and wants him to fill in it's place . He will have to deal also with Próspero (Milhem Cortáz) , a guy that will do anything to avoid the happy cheater from wooing his pretty young sister Áurea (Isis Valverde) .
