Love story beyond time
13 December 2006
The film is a story about love that never ends. Antony Quinn is the grandfather who still misses his lost love from the time of his youth. A new visitor coming to the house brings a secret to that never ending love, while the whole family seems to feel a change in its way of living. Also,the film is interesting because it is possible to see at the scenery parts of Brazil that are not very common to the public in general - for the film is filmed in the South of Brasil. The beaches and the big city general theme makes the scenes beautiful and full of surprise for a public who would expect to see the standard Brazilian scenery of Rio, football, Carnival or Amazonia. Antony Quinn's wonderful performance makes of this film a jewel. It should be seen by anyone who is interested in beautiful, profound themes in exotic lands.
