In the woods, on the outskirts of Niltão da Conceição, a beautiful small town, two friends were talking about how sad Saci-Pererê has been feeling lately. They decided to bring Saci’s sadness to an end, so they began making up a plan for finding him a wife, since lately Saci has been looking sad, downcast, unwilling to make any of his usual mischief. The whole Niltão da Conceição village was excited with the news of his wedding, and everyone wants to help preparing the party. However, a setback happens; something that can ruin their plans.
