Set in the traditional Liberdade neighborhood in downtown São Paulo, the film features the immense eastern community that has established itself in the city over the years, seeking a land of opportunity and a place for new business – legal or illegal. It is in the midst of the Chinese cultural traditions and the chaos of urban life that immigrant Yuda (Anthony Chau-Sang Wong) and his son Kirin (Joe Odagiri) command the piracy mafia in Brazil, but this empire falls into decay by being threatened by a powerful organization with strong international influences.
