Une version peu conformiste de l'Inconfidência Mineira à la fin du XVIII siècle. Situé à Ouro Prēto (État du Minas Gerais), autrefois Vila Rica, sur les lieux mêmes du drame, le film retrace le tragique destin du dentiste Tiradentes (en français « l'arracheur de dents »), accusé d'être le cerveau d'une conspiration indépendantiste contre la couronne portugaise. Étant le seul à assumer ses responsabilités dans la rébellion contre le pouvoir colonial, il fut pendu et son corps écartelé. De nos jours, Tiradentes est désormais considéré comme un martyr de l'Indépendance. Tous les 21 avril, le peuple brésilien rend hommage à son sacrifice et des pièces de monnaie sont également frappées à son effigie.
