Jorge, a luxury houses burglar in São Paulo, nicknamed by the sensationalist press of "Red Light Bandit", baffles the police with their unusual behaviour. In addition to wearing a red flashlight, he owns the victims, talks to them and makes bold breakthroughs to later spend the stolen money extravagantly. Jorge's world is populated by such types as detective Cabeção, prostitute Janete Jane and corrupt politician J. B. Silva.
