Rubens is a powerful bandit from the interior of São Paulo, who decides to deliver one last big blow with the help of his adopted daughter Leônia, who fled Bahia after being raped by her biological father. But not everything goes according to plan during the robbery of the private vaults of a bank on Avenida Paulista, the heart of São Paulo. Rubens and Leonia will only find their true destinies when they spawn the fruits of this assault in Paraguay, where they both come into crisis with their own existential values.
"Starring Eriberto Leão and Bianca Bin, 'Assalto na Paulista' tells a little-known story that is almost unbelievable. As the title suggests, it is about the robbery of Itaú Unibanco agency 0262 on Avenida Paulista in São Paulo. Like in 'La Casa de Papel' and other productions about big robberies, Flavio Frederico's movie seeks to deepen the personalities of the robbers and show that they are more than what the news reports, with stories that led them to commit such a crime - and that could have reached the amount of R$500 million. The highlight is not only for the unusual and almost unbelievable story, but also for the good performances of the cast, who give themselves to the movie."
