I was child when this soap opera was in the air but I remember this fantastic times when all days in the evening the soap starts with your electric theme played by dead funky-jazzy band called "Banda Black Rio" and its "Maria Fumaça" song that brings to me the late 70's in my mind. This soap shows the life of Kiki Blanche(Eva Todor) owner of a very sophisticated Beauty Hall. Your adoptive daughter called Fernanda (Lucélia Santos) loves Fábio(Walmor Chagas) the same man which Milena (Aracy Balabanian) loves, but she don't knows Milena is your true mother. This is the day by day of KIKI and your daughters which can take the Brazilians in past, the past of good days.
