Plot Synopsis

In this Brazilian version of TOO HOT TO HANDLE, five men and five women with too much beauty and too little responsibility together on a paradisiacal beach share the chance to take a prize even more attractive than them, in what may be the biggest challenge of their lives: half million reais, but only if they manage to control their desires.
