Sua Vida Me Pertence was the first in a tradition of telenovelas in Brazil. Broadcast by TV Tupi in São Paulo in black and white in 1951, it pioneered the genre worldwide, and featured Brazil's first on-screen kiss.
Inspector Carlos and his loyal companion, the friendly dog Lobo, fight crime while patrolling Brazil's highways in a Simca Chambord or a powerful Harley Davidson motorcycle.
