Plot

Solano Xavier (Edson Celulari) is a man of humble origin who never had formal education. When he takes a job as a truck driver, he unknowingly transports smuggled goods during one of his trips and is sentenced to 17 years in prison. In prison, Solano becomes good friends with Roberto (Marcos Winter), an educated young man who is unjustly imprisoned for the death of a man. While defending his fiancée, Pilar (Cristiana Oliveira), from two thugs harassing her, Roberto accidentally kills one of them, running him over with a car during the fight. With Roberto's influence, Solano spends his time studying. After seven years, he is released from prison due to good behavior and goes to meet his wife and son, but discovers that Eugênia (Maitê Proença) has married his former boss, businessman Arthur Junqueira (Herson Capri), and that they have a daughter together. From then on, Solano has to fight to regain Eugênia's love.[5]
