Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Inácio Pororoca is responsible for the local mail in an old west town. One day there comes bandit João Bigode, who kills the sheriff and puts Inácio on his place, just for fun. But Inácio takes his post seriously, and soon the bandits realize they've made a mistake.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
