Producer Nélson Teixeira Mendes recruited Marins to make a low budget adventure film with a likely high financial return. The director used surplus segments of Glauco Mirko Laurelli's 1966 film Bloody Inheritance.[3]

Plot

A gang of criminals organizes an expedition to the Amazonian forests in search of a lost treasure from a downed airplane. The members of the expedition enter into conflict because of gold and women, some committing suicide and others murdering the others.[1]
