Vale Tudo (Anything Goes in English) is a Brazilian telenovela produced and broadcast by TV Globo from May 16, 1988, to January 6, 1989.
[1] Raquel Accioli has been separated from her husband, Rubinho, for about ten years, a time when, after a violent argument, she decided to abandon him and go to live with her daughter, the ambitious Maria de Fátima, at her father's house, Salvador, in Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná.
In Rio she gets involved with César Ribeiro, a former model who had the catwalk world at his feet, and who acts as a call boy.
Maria de Fátima is introduced by César to Solange Duprat, fashion producer of Tomorrow magazine, starting to act as a model and live in his house, using her to get close to Afonso Roitman, the journalist's boyfriend, and to marry him.
The plot then shows duality: Maria de Fátima looking to get rich from her arranged marriage, while Raquel, selling sandwiches on the beach, ends up going up in life and, honestly, becomes owner of a chain of industrial restaurants.
