Salomé (Betty Faria), Lorde Cigano (José Wilker), and Andorinha are three traveling performers who traverse the country with the Rolidei Caravan, putting on shows for the humblest sector of the Brazilian population who still lack access to television. They are joined by the accordionist Ciço (Fábio Jr.) and his wife, Dasdô (Zaira Zambelli), and the Caravan crosses the Amazon until it reaches Brasília.
