Zezé is an eight-year-old boy who lives with his grandmother and suffers the drama of not having known his father. Amanda, Zezé's mother, is a beautiful but disillusioned young woman. She tells her son that his father is constantly traveling, trying to hide her own pain. Father's Day arrives and, at school, the teacher is preparing a party. Zezé, humiliated in front of his classmates, promises that he will bring his father on the day of the celebration. Zezé begs his grandmother to show him at least one photograph of his father. The old woman mistakenly gives him a photo of the singer Tony Marques, her daughter's former boyfriend. Zezé sets off to find her supposed father and ends up getting disastrously involved in the singer's life.

Poor boy treats a sweet lemon tree as his only friend, talking to it, and learning important values in the process. But one day the tree must be cut.

Two conmen (one trying to pretend his lousy farm is a great one to sell, other pretending to buy one without actual money) try to con each other.
