A surprisingly entertaining film about a teenage girl who has been cast out of
her family's home for her promiscuous behavior. At 14, Sandra (Cristina Ache) makes
her living by prostitution and erotic dancing. She falls in love with a young street
hustler, Tony (Paulo Gracindo). Her father, a police detective, begs her to return
home, especially after a series of cold-blooded murders start occurring in the area.
She cannot forgive her father for the harsh treatment he has dealt her.
Sandra's father's investigation is closing in on the killer, who is closer than
we expect to find him. We know that the killer kills for cash, and not much cash,
most of his victims have been taxi-drivers. Set in the Copacabana district of Rio De
Janeiro, the background street scenes are fascinating to watch. This is not an
award-winning film or even an important film. The location footage of Copacabana and
concern for the young girl make Amor Bandido worth watching.
