Controversy

The movie was considered somewhat controversial by some because it contains two brief scenes of sensuality between the libertine character played by Xuxa and that of the young man. Although excerpts of the movie may be found on some international sites, it has been carefully excised from most by public relations agents of the entertainer. Thus, the sensual scenes are referred to as "censored".
