When the criminal Paulo Alberto is executed in the Baixada Fluminense, his lover Marluce keeps an old clock he stole in his last heist with a treasure hidden in its interior. The dirty detective Tito Lívio tries to retrieve the object and the honest Gilberto protects Marluce. Meanwhile, an innocent and simple man, Valdir, is wrongly accused of a heist and sent to prison. Together with Paulo Alberto's cousin, Jorge Fernando, who had had contact with a political prisoner, they found the criminal organization "Falange Vermelha", using the principles of union, confidence and brotherhood.
