Cesar Boyd: All right, I'm a liar. I made the entire thing up from beginning to end. Are you satisfied? Caesar Boyd confesses. Please stay.
Greg Bachmann: I would rather die.
Cesar Boyd: Greg, don't act as though you didn't know the facts of life. This is how it's always been. Lies, lies, lies. We newspapermen live by lies. A lie is nothing but a journalist's trademark. That's what sells newspapers.
Greg Bachmann: In the life of everyman they say there's a turning point. Last night I decided to finish you once and for all, but I'm afraid I exaggerated your importance. There will always be people like you, cheating, lying. Today it's the great Caesar Boyd, tomorrow the government, and some soap manufacturer. But they're not using me.

"Nasser Asphalt", a.k.a. "Wet Asphalt", is a dramatic thriller based on a true story that shows the effect of a swindle in the press. The character Greg Bachmann is too brave and does not accept to sell his soul to the powerful Cesar Boyd and prefers to expose his former boss to the press, in a rare example of integrity and ethic. Unfortunately the DVD released in Brazil is dubbed in English. My vote is seven.
Title (Brazil): "Asfalto Molhado" ("Wet Asphalt")
