    • During Christmas dinner, Rodo, the family's millionaire uncle, accidentally dies. His relatives in frank economic decline, speculate with his lavish inheritance, but everything changes when at 12 o'clock the doorbell of the house rings and a woman introduces herself as the wife of the deceased. Mario, the head of the family, desperate at the possibility of losing everything, hides the body and forces the others to simulate the kidnapping of the uncle. In this way, the inheritance would return in the form of payment for the ransom. The money bag appears on the scene and the plan seems infallible, but it goes into crisis when everyone wants to take their share.
