Basically a one-character film: a dumpy-looking middle-aged bear who scores above his attractiveness rating and is obsessed with sleazy erotic dreams (which are quite imaginatively filmed, if not quite on the level of, say, Fassbinder's *Querelle* in terms of color and lighting). Oh, and his jealousies.
The rest of the characters are seriously underdeveloped and not terribly interesting except perhaps for the female coworker who turns 40.
The oral sex looks to be very real, but the director cops out on the anal. I would've found it more honest if all the sex were either hinted at, or all of it genuine.
As far as the natural scenery is concerned, good lord has rampant capitalism made a wasteland out of Brazil.
