Genre: Comedy
Released: 1999-11-16
Rating: 7.4
Cast: Alexandra Lencastre, João Lagarto, Joaquim Monchique

One of the most imaginative Portuguese series ever. Everything happens in a small news magazine office in Lisbon. The Boss (the ultra sexy Alexandra Lencastre) lives in permanent tension with one of her subordinates, the chief executive (performed by the actor João Lagarto). They live a love/hate relation and you can always feel some kind of sexual tension between them. Victória (Alexandra Lencastre) is a emancipated woman and José Maria (João Lagarto) is a convict revolutionary, product of the April Portuguese revolution. The other workers are also study-case worthy. Bernardo Mattos (actor Joaquim Monchique) is the archetype of the yes man. He always ready to do something that raises him above all the other company workers. Fabulous text, wonderful acting.

Portuguese-language cinema, spanning Portugal, Brazil, and other Lusophone regions, focuses on history, cultural identity, and the struggles of ordinary people, often framed with poetic or allegorical storytelling. In Portugal, cinema has emphasized meditative pacing and philosophical depth, reflecting on memory and tradition. In Brazil, it has often been politically charged and socially vibrant, highlighting inequality and resilience while experimenting with popular and avant-garde forms.
