Summary

Hero has a real aversion to everything he considers “commercial”, becoming uncompromising, mainly because he is extremely similar-looking to the greatest Brazilian country singer, Sandro Sanderlei. Of course, this stance makes life hard for Hero, who has his biggest break when Sandro slips into a coma when he is getting lipo.

Unemployed and heavily in debt, Hero is convinced by his drummer, friend and faithful squire, Panza, to accept the invitation to pose as Sandro on his tour, despite all of his convictions.

Hero goes on tour, where he meets Lulli, Sandro's ex-girlfriend. He ends up falling in love with her, despite her treating him badly, blaming him for Sandro's cheating.

Hero, prevented from revealing his true identity, ends up discovering during the tour that balancing success, fame and demands with artistic integrity and personal life is more complicated than he imagined.[1]
