Storyline
After being forced into a marriage and enduring a humiliating work routine in the hands of his father-in-law, Ze Araujo becomes the mythical Ojuara, an unconventional hero devoted to debauchery.
In the Northeastern of Brazil, the wolf traveling salesman of fabric Jose Araujo arrives at Jardim dos Caiacos and succeeds in selling his merchandise to the Turkish Turco. He goes to a ball to celebrate the business and he meets Dualiba, the forty and something year-old virgin daughter of Turco. He shags Dualiba and she tells her father what happened, and Jose Araujo is forced to marry her. When the resigned Araujo discovers that he is the motive of joke in the town, he changes his name to Ojuara and becomes a fearless lonely rider though the countryside of Northeastern to the paradisiacal Sao Sarue. Along his journey, his name becomes a legend that has defeated the devil and many bullies. He meets the gorgeous Jacirene a.k.a. Genifer in a brothel; the circus acrobat in the trapeze Sue; the evil Mae de Pantanha and her "vagina dentata" ("toothed vagina"); and the daughter of a powerful farmer Eleonora.
