    • Synopsis
    • On a Saturday night, a secret posh party is thrown in a mansion up in the hills near São Paulo. Eric has not been invited, but he manages to sneak into this secret place, starting a shocking narrative of what he witnesses: the party is actually the background for five human pit fights promoted by unscrupulous playboys who place bets on poor wrestlers confronting each other inside an empty swimming pool for a few dollars. What nobody realizes is that Eric uses his cell phone to film the guests having fun while watching a deplorable combat between survivors of a miserable country.
