Plot summary
Raymond Woods is a junior manager at a bank in the City, bored with his job and passed over for promotion by his bad-tempered boss, Strothers. Days before Christmas he finds his wife, Cathy, with Strothers. His escape from the routine is a part-time job teaching dance, and he spends his spare time watching Latin dancing and thinking about Orlinda, a famous Brazilian dancer. He empties the bank and flies to Rio, where a taxi driver named Paulo, who owes money to a mafia boss in the city, drives him around and, once he sees the cash, installs him in a fine hotel. Raymond tells Paulo the reason for the trip: he has come to Rio for Orlinda.
