Synopsis

Bernardo wants to make his son André the great public figure he never became, but the boy rebels, drops out of school, grows his hair, and dedicates himself to yé-yé. Indignant, the conservative Bernardo even promises a reward to anyone who cuts André's hair. He has a girlfriend named Duda, whose parents are against such behavior. Amid the conflict, André himself cuts his hair and immediately becomes a pop music star.
