What side is love on?
Vera and Rodrigo are absolutely passionate about each other and get married, having João as the product of their love. But, like any other marriage, their relationship has its ups and downs between intense passion and their differing life views. Vera is a up and coming lawyer and Rodrigo an agronomy engineer. She's an urban woman who doesn’t do well in a rural environment while he loves the country and bulls, not too keen on city life.
To make things worse, along comes Eduardo, Vera's boss and a brilliant but vicious lawyer. He hopes to prevent any possibility of reconciliation between Vera and Rodrigo and ensure that Vera keeps full custody of their son João. He wants this because, when he was deployed in Angola as a military, Eduardo swore to Rodrigo’s father João Maria, that he’d have his revenge.
