In the middle of a drought, Pétanqui - who is responsible for the distribution of food to the population - enjoys a good life, a nice house, lovers and an official car. His son returns from France with a Law degree, and although he does not approve of his father's lifestyle he decides to defend him in court, when he is accused of embezzlement. His defence becomes a strong attack on civil servants and members of government who take advantage of their situation. After all his father is the lesser evil of a state of generalized corruption.

Em plena seca, Pétanqui - encarregado da distribuição dos bens alimentares à população - tem uma boa vida, uma bela casa, amantes e um carro do governo. O seu filho regressa de França com uma licenciatura em Direito e, embora não aprove o estilo de vida do pai, aceita defendê-lo quando ele é processado por peculato. A sua defesa transforma-se num ataque fortíssimo aos funcionários e membros do governo que tiram proveito da situação, considerando o seu pai como um pequeno mal no meio da corrupção geral.
