- O Abajour é a história de Guilherme (interpretado pelo ator Alex Reis). Um rapaz que conquista um padrão de vida invejável... Mora em um sofisticado apartamento no Leblon, bairro nobre da Zona Sul do Rio de Janeiro, namora a filha de um advogado conceituado e de bastante prestígio na sociedade carioca. Guilherme gosta de freqüentar os melhores lugares, usa roupas e acessórios de marca e é para as pessoas uma referência de "bom moço", pela maneira gentil e atenciosa com que trata os amigos e com quem se relaciona, mas por trás de todas essas qualidades ele esconde um segredo que lhe pode custar muito caro. Guilherme trabalha como "Abajour" um tipo de informante X9 da polícia corrupta do Rio e descobre que seu amigo de infância e viciado em drogas "Murilo" (interpretado pelo ator Daniel Bouzas), está endividado com um "agiota" barra pesada chamado "Moby" (interpretado pelo ator Daniel Braga). Mesmo resistindo no início, Guilherme acaba se comovendo com o desespero do amigo e resolve ajudá-lo. A partir daí, os dois seguem em busca de uma solução, mas eles tem pouco tempo e muitos obstáculos a serem superados. Tudo isso pode dar muito errado e os dois amigos podem estar mais encrencados do que pensam. "O Abajour" is the story of Guilherme (played by Alex Reis). A young man that attains an enviable lifestyle... He lives in a sophisticated apartment in Leblon, an exclusive neighborhood in the South Zone of Rio de Janeiro, dates the daughter of a prestigious lawyer in the "carioca" high society. Guilherme enjoys the finer things in life, the best clothes, nightclubs, and is known by everyone as a "nice guy". But behind all these qualities lies a secret that can cost him everything. Guilherme makes a living as an "abajour" (lit. a "lamp" which is a term used for a kind of informer for the corrupt police in Rio de Janeiro) and he finds out his childhood friend and drug-addict Murilo (played by Daniel Bouzas) owes a large amount of money to a dangerous loan shark named Moby (played by Daniel Braga). Resisting at first, Guilherme ends up feeling moved by the plight of his friend and decides to help him. From that point they strike out to find a solution, but they have little time and many obstacles to surpass. All of this might go very wrong and the two friends may be in much more trouble than they suspect.
