Currently airing on TV Globo, She’s The One is written by Alessandra Poggi (A Trick of Fate) with artistic direction by Natalia Grimberg. In the plot, set in the 1950s, Beatriz (Duda Santos, from Rebirth) believes that since she was four years old, she was abandoned by her mother, Clarice (Carol Castro from Orphans of a Nation). But she doesn’t know that, in reality, Clarice lost her memory in a serious accident. Sixteen years later, when she finally discovers her mother’s whereabouts, Beatriz finds herself faced with another Bia (Maisa) in her place, and must deal with this new reality, beginning a journey – full of struggles – of reconciliation with the past.
“Our telenovela is a fable of hope. At the same time, it provokes some reflections. Society has changed a lot since that time, but many issues are still, unfortunately, very current. We will bring the whole atmosphere of that time, but also make people think about how we could be in a different place if we had evolved in some aspects,” says Alessandra.
By João Emanuel Carneiro (Brazil Avenue), with artistic direction by Carlos Araujo, Crazy About You, is also a highlight in the portfolio for Content Americas. Airing on prime time in Brazil, the telenovela starts with the friendship between two young women, Viola (Gabz from Perfect Love) and Luma (Agatha Moreira, from Hidden Truths), who seem destined to literally enter each other’s lives. With a journey split between complicity and rivalry that puts them in a love quartet with Mavi (Chay Suede, from A Mother’s Love) and Rudá (Nicolas Prattes, from All the Flowers) and is impacted by a series of developments, twists, and surprises, like the secret surrounding a murder.
