When the Portuguese police began to investigate, in 1967, an illegal prostitution network, they ended up stumbling upon a huge secret that could shake the foundations of the republican regime: a select group of prostitutes who organized parties with teenage girls to secretly satisfy the sexual desires of bankers, politicians, ministers, aristocrats and powerful businessmen: the Ballet Rose Case.
