At Pentagrama, Guilherme's Advertising Agency, agitation reigns.
A client with a decisive “budget” to keep the Agency running, without being swallowed up by the multinationals that are starting to dominate the country, awaits the presentation of the proposal for his great campaign, but Nelson, the creative, disappeared and with him all the mockups.
Guilherme's cunning and perseverance will not let him give up.
But how can he and his team come up with a new campaign in the space of a week when there's no sign of the creative?

A publicist since the 1980s, general director of an agency and president of the Associação Museu da Publicidade, João Monsanto brings us a magnificent novel about advertising after the 25th of April, in Lisbon and in a changing country.
A fun story that can be read in one breath and that is simultaneously the portrait of a time that everyone will be delighted to know or remember.
