Rise and fall of Wilson Simonal (1938-2000), Brazilian singer who left the poverty to make great success in the 1960s and 1970s. Once at the top, Simonal started to feel invincible: he would show off his wealth and refuse to take position against the military dictatorship. When he faced financial trouble due to his excessive spending, he decided to threaten his accountant and ended up being targeted by government officials. The beginning of the fall of one of the biggest voices Brazil has ever heard.
