The Help discoteca is South America's largest nightclub, located in Rio de Janeiro on the famous Copacabana beach. This nightclub, open seven nights a week, carries some considerable notoriety, as its clientele consists primarily of foreign and domestic male tourists and Brazilian girls of very limited means from the favelas. Typically, the girls seek to sell their company out for cash, ranging from 100 to 300 reales for a date. Depending on the personality of the people involved, further relationships have been known to ensue, with marriage not unknown.
