Original subtitles

My dear panthers, especially the young ones,

those of you who are from the new generation

you don't know that the real panther

is from Minas Gerais.

Ângela Maria Fernandes Diniz is here.

What did I tell you, Ibrahim?

That wasn't our deal.

I don't need an interview, just dance.

- The audience will love it. - My ex-husband's lawyers too.

They already think I'm a terrible mom

and a terrible person.

How many times do I need to say that I don't want this?

You're right. I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking.

I won't let anyone say bad things about you.

I just want to be a normal person in a club.

Is it too much to ask?

You? A normal person?

Keep dreaming.

Thank you. Cheers!

Cheers.

You're drooling.

Another one, Tóia?

It's so hot today!

You're drunk.

And you're boring.

You should take better care of your friend.

Vitória Maria is a grown woman.

She's absolutely depressed.

She looks really happy today.

Excuse me. It's my turn to be happy now.

Bombastic news!

Friends and folks, you should write this down.

You don't know, but the queen of Egypt is among us.

Tonight's host, my friend Adelita.

She's so pretty it hurts.

It's a great pleasure to welcome you.

- Welcome. - Thank you.

So, which city has the best parties?

Rio de Janeiro or São Paulo?

There's always the air shuttle service.

- Don't get me into trouble, Ibrahim. - Never.

Adelita, what people don't know about you?

I know you're a very generous person.

Of course. Our family has three commendations.

We've built 83 hospitals.

People have no idea how much we help society

and our city.

Or even the country.

That's great.

That's it for today.

Fancy!

You're stunning.

It's occupied.

I'm sorry.

Are you okay?

I'm great.

Do you need anything?

A rocket.

To take me away from those awful people.

So there's just awful people here?

Not awful.

They are fake.

Their smiles are fake, their hugs, earrings, clothes... Everything.

Your perfume isn't fake.

I think you're following me.

Do you want me to follow you?

Is this about what I want or what you want?

If you know from where this rocket will be launched,

let me know.

I really wanted you to meet each other.

Thanks for inviting me. You have a beautiful house.

No problem. It's a pleasure to welcome you.

Don't mind my costume.

My son decided to play target practice.

He's only three years old. He cried more than I did.

Raul, darling.

Have you met my friend Ibrahim?

Ângela?

Of course I know him.

They're from Rio.

Raul, tell us.

How did you become interested in African safaris?

I was 17 years old.

Back then, hunting elephants

was almost legal.

Raul has thousands of stories to tell, Ibrahim.

We should spend some days on the farm to hear everything.

I remember once,

the elephant had six tons.

It came towards me.

I ran and my leg got stuck on a vine.

I could only see

those magnificent ivory fangs

coming after me.

It was one of the scariest

and most beautiful moments

of my life.

Then, another hunter passed me the rifle...

- And that was it. - Poor elephant.

I'm really happy to meet you.

- I'm glad. - Ibrahim talks a lot about you.

See?

If there's something I can do to help you...

My cousin is a great family lawyer.

I read in the newspapers about what happened to your daughter.

And your family.

Those are factoids.

How could a mom kidnap her own daughter?

Right?

Would you put a kid burning with fever inside a plane?

Would you?

Where was the dad?

Yeah.

Unfortunately, children suffer the most in these cases.

So, you think I shouldn't have spared my daughter?

- Is that it? - I get it.

I just think you should've tried to call him.

I don't know. Make a deal.

So you think I'm wrong?

Nobody's saying that, little panther.

You should've said, "Ângela, I think you're wrong".

Ângela,

as a mother,

I think you did

what you thought was right.

But you were wrong before the law.

It doesn't matter what I think.

There's nothing more saddening than a family being destroyed.

Jorginho!

Jorginho, my dear cousin!

I'm so glad you're here.

Excuse me.

There goes Mother Teresa.

Did I ask for her help?

- Did I? - No, Ângela. Listen.

Not everyone is against you.

Give Adelita a chance, damn it.

Attention, ladies and gentlemen,

this interstellar spaceship will be launched to other galaxies in five,

four, three, two, one.

Hey!

Welcome, guys.

My friends! It's a pleasure.

It's great to welcome you.

We're glad to be here.

- How was the trip? - Great, the road is wonderful.

- It's great. - Are you tired?

- Welcome. - My friend.

- My dear friend! - What a beautiful house!

Well, it's clean.

- Shall we? - Yes, of course.

- Adelita, one more glass, please. - Sure.

- This wine is delicious. - Right?

- Make yourselves at home. - Yes, be my guest, please.

All right.

Oh, look.

This is an original lamb from the Harmonia Farm.

- Born and raised right here. - It's a tradition.

It's so cute!

Dear Lord,

we thank You

for this cute little lamb that didn't know where he was heading:

our stomachs.

Cheers.

- Well... - Ângela...

Cheers.

Cheers.- Buon appetito.

- Thank you. - It looks great.

Ângela, you're a really good writer.

Your grand monde point of view is really funny.

It's critical.

Many people won't like it. You know that, right?

But that's how I like it.

My little panther,

your book will be a success.

Your opinion is really important to me.

Always.

Hey.

Listen.

What your ex-husband is doing is called violence.

If you want another lawyer, just tell me.

I know some of the best jurists in the country.

So does he.

Ibrahim suffers from snoring.

Actually, I'm the one who suffers.

It's terrible.

Does he take sleeping pills?

- I thought about calling you, but... - We don't need to talk about this now.

Are you okay?

That's a tricky question.

Is anyone really okay?

Good night, Raul.

Damn it.

Another one. Second chance.

Go ahead.

No matter the age, boys will be boys.

- Damn it. - You have to teach them.

Take care when they get sick.

Put them in time-out.

I'd rather go to Paris.

Watch this, Raul.

I'll teach you how to do it.

I'm sorry about the other day. I shouldn't have said that.

But...

The idea of seeing a broken family hurts me.

You know?

The problem is that the law is never on our side.

It's a man's world.

This is for you, panther.

Forever boys.

- Good job. - That was a good one.

Everybody should have this experience

at least once in life.

What do you mean?

Dominating something that's bigger than you.

- Excuse me. - Ângela.

- What? - What was that?

What are you doing?

Let me go.

I'm sorry.

- Nice watch. - What?

Your watch. It's nice.

Is it new?

Yeah.

I can't wait to see her next gift for you,

because it'll be hard to top this one.

Ângela...

Bye.

Good night, son.

Sleep tight.

Lay down.

I know what's going on, Raul.

I just hope that you

don't forget who you are

because of a crazy adventure.

Hello?

Hi, astronaut.

I'll leave the rest on your table later.

Where are you?

I'm waiting for you.

I'm telling you, Raul.

You're poking the bear.

This woman will drive you crazy.

So now you're a psychologist?

I'm a lawyer.

And, as a lawyer,

I see people's worst side. Didn't you ask me to help you?

So...

I'm here to help you.

I just asked you to say you were with me.

That's all.

You're not lying just to your wife.

You work with your brother-in-law.

He's right there.

On the other side of that wall.

Raul,

you're putting your business at risk.

Raul, it's Ângela again.

Tell her I can't answer now.

I'm in a meeting.

Ângela, Raul is in a meeting.

You need to come to Belo Horizonte more often.

I know.

I always take the kids to the country club.

I visit them. They always ask me about you.

I can imagine.

But their dad is really reactive.

What did he tell you?

I want to know the exact words, mom.

He said he did you a favor by getting the kids' custody.

Because you wanted to leave.

Bastard.

- Sweetie... - Why can't we come with you?

Listen.

Soon we'll be together all the time.

Okay? Got it?

Give me a smile.

And a hug.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

Don't make that face.

I love you.

Honey,

you've made a decision.

Now you must be strong

and brave to keep going.

Okay?

I miss you so much.

- I love you, mom. - I love you.

I love you.

Shall we?

Don't look me like that.

It was either that or dying.

I was dying in that house.

And my kids saw that. Everybody did.

So, his condition for the separation was the kids' custody?

He didn't think I'd accept that.

But I'll get the chance to build my life with my children.

And live near them.

No one will take that away from me.

No one will take that away from me.

Sometimes...

Sometimes I think I'm flying.

And sometimes I think I'm falling.

Get me out of here, Raul.

Get me out of here.

I got you.

I got you.

Get in the car.

My little panther, you disappeared.

Where are you?

I'm at the beach, Ibrahim.

Look at her go.

When are you coming back to me?

I'm not.

- Vitória Maria! - Ângela Maria! Darling!

Welcome, everyone!

- What's that? - It's a Tóia thing.

- How was the trip, Raul? - Excellent.

- How are you? - Great.

- What a beautiful house! - Right?

We bought it from a fisherman and renovated it.

- Wow! - It's an incredible house.

- It's perfect for a couple in love. - I'm so thirsty.

- Me too. - The neighbors are great.

My parents have a house nearby.

It's very safe.

- How was the drive? - Couldn't be better.

- How many miles? - Not a lot.

There's a moment in life when you just want to stop working,

move to the beach and become a fisherman.

- Right, Raul? - For sure.

Women first, always.

Tóia and I...

We're pretty happy here. Right, Tóia?

- Yes, baby. - Thanks, Lili.

And I'm sure

that you'll be very happy here too.

- Cheers! - Cheers!

I need to tell you something.

What?

I found out I'm not frigid.

I knew it.

What did I tell you?

It wasn't with Moreau.

I didn't think so.

What's wrong?

Promise you won't judge me.

You know I hate judges.

He works for me at the store.

- He's younger than me. - Okay.

Much younger.

He's a Sagittarius.

That's terrible!

Tell me more.

I went to run some errands at the warehouse during lunch time...

So, he offered to help me,

but he started getting too close, you know?

Then he asked me if I knew how pretty I was.

Of course he asked you that.

You're a wonderful woman.

I started laughing.

I couldn't stop.

I felt ridiculous.

Then he kissed me.

It was a slow kiss, you know?

- Yes. - A wet kiss.

I ran and locked myself in my office.

When I sat on the chair, I realized my thighs were all wet.

And he was knocking on the door.

- He was worried. - He wanted to get in.

How would I go to the restroom?

- I needed to clean myself. - You were horny. That's great.

Why do I feel so guilty?

I feel my heart coming out of my chest.

You're feeling alive. You can feel your heart beating.

And it's scary.

It's scary, but it's wonderful.

It's wonderful.

Wait a second.

- Yes? - Your drink.

I was...

trapped in that situation.

Think about it.

I was living in her house and working with her family.

It was awful.

I needed this, the sun.

Do you have another source of income besides that business?

No, but I'll call some friends from the capital market,

when the dust settles, of course.

- I'll make it happen. - People know your character.

It's a difficult time, but I'm sure things will work out.

I'm crazy about this woman.

I mean it.

You'll be really happy here, honey.

Thank you, darling.

Lili! Ângela and Raul are your new bosses.

You'll get along just fine.

I'm sorry, Miss Tóia, but I can't work for this woman.

She was caught by surprise. I'll talk to her.

Why can't you work for me?

What did I do?

You're rude.

And you're disrespectful.

This is absurd.

- She has to apologize. - I'll talk to her. She's a nice person.

It's my fault. I should've warned her first.

- Vitória... - It's fine.

It's okay, baby.

- I'll find someone else. - Okay.

Where did everyone go?

Where's everyone? I just bought a house!

Tóia!

C'mon, guys!

One, two, three, four.

Something like this.

One, two,

three...

I think that's it.

- This square right here. - It's a good size.

I'll need a bathroom here.

Maybe a cesspit over there.

We need some lining, because of the heat.

- For the kids. Yes. - In the front.

How much time?

Three months, I guess.

- By yourself? - Julio and I.

- Oh, Julio. I met him. - Yeah.

- He's fine too. - Great.

- Just the two of you? - Yes, it's enough.

All right, but it can't be late.

Take tutoring lessons? What do you mean?

It's just during their exam period.

I'll pick them up on the weekend.

So now they can't see their grandma anymore?

He's lying.

He's lying. Mom, listen.

You need to help me.

You need to put him in his place, do something.

No, sweetie.

I'm not arguing with my grandchildren's dad.

I don't want to risk not seeing them.

Sweetie, I know you're suffering.

But I'm suffering too, Ângela.

Got it.

This will be a big bedroom.

If we start the construction now,

it'll be done in three months for the kids.

Three months?

I want them to come in January.

Hire more people.

- Get more people to work here. - I'll see to it.

Did you talk to Moreau about the maid?

They're all busy. It's the end of the year.

I can't believe there's no one available.

I think I'll hire someone from Rio.

You know? Or from São Paulo. Someone more qualified.

Qualified? Who'd that be?

Who?

Who'll hire that person? You?

Who'll show them around if we don't know the house?

I'm sorry.

I'm tired.

You don't have to do all by yourself.

Let me help you.

We're in this together.

No, it is being recovered since last year.

We need foreign resources now.

You can offset the tax later.

That too, yeah.

From applied values.

Yes.

All right.

Bye.

Here it is.

Call me if you need anything.

Good afternoon.

- Would you like something to drink? - No.

I want to talk to you.

Go ahead.

How much do you earn here?

Are you looking for a job?

Life is hard for everyone.

I can pay what Moreau used to pay you plus half of your current wage.

I've made a deal with the owner.

I can't leave like that.

So you plan to keep on working in this place?

Do you think I have options?

I wish I had, but this is it.

How old are you?

I'm 21.

I already had three kids at your age.

What do you want from life?

I don't know, but I'll find out.

I live in Rio. If you want, I can...

I thought you were living here. Are you coming back?

You know what?

It turns out

you pay the price for having a big mouth.

I did you wrong.

I'm sorry.

I have a big mouth too.

It takes one to know one.

All right.

But I don't work on weekends.

The problem was the bank.

It was the bank.

The contract is right here.

I'll wire it tomorrow.

I'll do it tomorrow.

Sure.

Can you arrange a meeting with that investor tomorrow?

I'm working by myself now.

Yes, I can go to Rio tomorrow.

I've already worked with that kind of investment.

Yes, it's risky.

But you can get results if you do it right.

Is everything okay?

Why?

You've been smoking a lot.

I guess I'm anxious.

Following the stock market gets me...

So the maid decided to come back?

We worked it out.

How much?

Don't worry about that.

I mean it.

I mean it.

She'll come here, make some money, and then she'll leave.

And we'll find someone else.

- Stop it. - Hey...

- Stop it, baby. - Come here.

- No... - Come here.

No.

No, you stink of cigarettes. Stop.

We just need to fix those imperfections.

But keep it in white.

- Just like this one. - Yes, sir.

- Good morning. - Morning.

Good morning.

Lili!

Good morning.

Do we have any fruit? Can you get some for me?

Are you going to walk around the house dressed like that?

- I'm wearing your shirt. I like it. - Go get dressed.

There are people working here.

I just woke up. Can I at least drink my coffee?

Lili.

Go get some clothes for Ângela, please.

Yes, sir.

No need, Lili.

Do as I say, Ângela.

You know what, Lili?

- Raul doesn't know fashion. - Don't provoke me.

- Cut it out. - Ângela.

I'm in my house, I'll wear what I want.

Raul?

I lost my mind earlier today.

I noticed.

I was rude.

- That was... - Yes, you were.

I feel weird.

I always thought I knew myself, but...

I don't know.

It's not about you.

Quite the opposite. Right now,

you're the only one who makes me feel good.

Things will get better. You'll see.

It's only been two months.

That's all.

I'm thinking about buying an apartment near my son's

and taking the job at Jorginho's car dealership.

I'd be here while you stay in São Paulo?

I can't give you what you need.

I can't.

Are you leaving?

I need to fix my life.

Away from me?

You don't know how much it hurts.

But it's the right thing to do.

I don't know if I can make you happy.

You took your chances, right?

You enjoyed and had fun. Now you're going back to your real life.

Is that it?

Is that it, Raul?

Your life sucks, right?

You already got the hot girl.

You live in a house at the beach for free,

without spending a dime.

Your ex-wife could ruin your life, but she's too good for that.

She won't do that to you.

And now that things are difficult,

you'll sell luxury cars with Jorginho.

Poor you.

Now you are sad and depressed.

Is that it?

You know what, Raul?

Just leave.

Go.

Go away.

Go.

I'm sorry.

Raul.

Don't go. Don't go away.

- Look at me. - Ângela.

Look at me, please!

Don't leave me. I love you.

Don't leave me. Don't give up on me.

Don't give up on us.

Don't give up on us.

Don't leave me. Don't leave me here.

See? It's an infiltration.

We must check if it's outside.

If it's inside, it's hydraulics.

You'll need to turn the water off for two days to see if it dries.

I hate constructions.

I hate it.

It's better to find out sooner than later.

I'm not in the headspace to deal with that.

I know, baby.

But unfortunately I'm going to need you.

Why don't we open a joint account?

It'll be so much easier.

My money will be there and you can use it whenever you want.

I have to call the bank, sign a bunch of papers...

They've changed the manager again. I don't even know his name.

It's supposed to make our lives easier, not harder.

But we'll do it your way.

Okay?

Whatever you think it's best.

Done.

No, I mean it.

Yeah. I think...

I think we should invest this money, like we did last time.

It actually worked.

Do you still have the power of attorney?

Of course, Mrs. Diniz.

You're lucky I didn't steal your money after you stole my heart.

Stingy people always have respect for money, Ibrahim.

That's why you don't steal from me.

Listen. Since you haven't invited me to the beach,

when are you coming to see me?

There's a new restaurant. I'm sure you'll love it.

Well, we're renovating the house, I'm sorting some things out.

Jesus Christ, it's really annoying.

But as soon as I'm done with it,

I'll visit everyone, including you.

I miss you.

And how's your book?

Hey.

Lunch.

It's served.

Hello?

I'm coming.

Ângela?

Is everything okay?

I was thinking...

We could go on a trip during the construction.

We can visit some friends, get away for a while.

That'd be nice.

I have stuff to do in the city. It'd be nice.

How's your mom?

- She's fine. Yes. - Yeah?

You were talking to her, right?

No, I was actually investing some money.

Who's the broker, Ângela?

A friend of mine.

An old friend who's always helped me out.

So you miss him?

Raul...

I was in my room,

talking about my business, thinking about our future.

Your business, right?

Your room.

Your house.

Always the same.

You have no respect for me.

Or anyone else.

You're selfish.

- What do you want me to do? - You're selfish...

Huh? Everything I do is wrong.

I just want you to admire me.

Like you used to.

Why are we fighting?

Why are we arguing? I don't know.

You keep denying something I saw.

I saw it with my own eyes.

- How could I forget that? - Raul, I don't...

- Enough. I can't. - You just...

I don't want to argue with you.

Are you paying that rich guy to take care of your money?

Or are you making him believe you'll notice him someday?

I get it now.

You're afraid.

You're afraid. Aren't you?

You're afraid now, but you weren't afraid

when you slept with me.

You weren't afraid to fuck me at your ex-wife's house.

Don't worry.

You don't have to be afraid because of that.

Don't worry.

I won't replace you for a rich guy.

I don't need money.

If I needed money, I wouldn't be with you.

Fuck.

Son of a bitch!

Don't you dare touch me!

- You hear me? Don't touch me! - Look what you've made me do!

Why do you do this to me?

He hit me.

He hit me.

I'm sorry.

Forgive me.

I get...

The idea of losing you to someone else drives me completely...

I love you so much, Ângela.

I promise I'll never do that again.

Please, believe me.

I promise.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Come with me.

I'll wait for you here.

It's just for two days.

- Call me. - Okay, I'll call you.

Pick up the phone.

Eat properly, go sea bathing...

They say it's good for you.

Relax, astronaut.

- I'm late, it means nothing. - We'll keep trying, then.

Think about our kid running around here.

Drive safely.

Yes, ma'am.

I was wearing a French lingerie,

and Moreau was complaining about the sandwich he ate at the airport.

I said, "I want you now."

He touched my boobs, put his tongue in my mouth...

It was a dry kiss.

I cried.

I said I'd had too much to drink and that I missed him.

I really missed him.

I miss the time when I desired him.

When I thought he was the man I wanted.

But I didn't know what I wanted.

What I liked.

Like, watching a man get between my legs, you know?

You understand what I'm saying, right?

Being desired.

Saying something and realizing he is listening, you know?

When I was 15, my mom said, "Vitória Maria has big hips."

I think about it every time I start eating.

When a boy picked a friend of mine over me,

which was always,

I'd always think my hips were the problem.

But not you.

You've always been Ângela.

And look at me now.

People know what kind of person you are.

My ex-husband is persecuting me.

He says I can't

provide a stable home for my kids.

We were married for ten years.

Not ten days or ten months.

Marriage is complicated.

But this is almost over now.

You and Raul are steady, the kids will be able to visit you...

Sometimes I think I'm just a shadow.

People see what they want to see.

The mother of your children.

The woman who'll ruin your life.

Your best friend.

Your worst enemy.

All my life,

I saw

the moment I'd change before people's eyes.

When they realized I wasn't what they expected

or thought I was,

that's when

I'd get many different reactions.

I'm terrified of that moment.

Raul would do anything for you.

It's written all over his face.

Just like Moreau saw

that I didn't want him anymore.

What now?

I don't know what to say.

I don't have an answer for you.

But you're not alone.

And her face?

Did she win the race?

First place!

She looked like a Japanese bullet train.

Did you know she could run like that?

She always ran at shower time. No one could get her.

She wanted me to say she misses you.

The boys too.

Tell them I'm building a beautiful house for them.

I'll tell them, sweetie. Don't worry.

We love you and we miss you, okay?

I love you too.

So much.

God bless you, honey.

Amen, mom.

God bless you too.

Bye.- Bye.

Miss Ângela, I'm leaving, okay?

Wow, Lili!

You look beautiful!

You'll be the prettiest girl in the room.

Why are you blushing?

You have to tell yourself

every day, "Yes, I'm beautiful."

All right.

What if you come with me? How about it?

I'm going out to dance until my feet hurt.

No.

- You go have fun. - All right.

See you later. Bye.

Ângela?

What are you wearing?

He's here.

Who?

The cute guy from the warehouse.

You gave him the landline number? What if he calls?

I had to meet him. But don't worry.

He won't come here.

He's at a hotel.

Vitória! What if Moreau calls me?

The last thing Moreau wants is to see me.

If he calls, make something up.

Tell him I'm drunk and sleeping on the couch.

My God...

Please.

Okay.

I thought we were going to eat popcorn and gossip about everyone,

laugh together...

But it's fine. Go get your happy ending.

Just go!

- Thank you. - I love you.

Even when you leave me.

Ângela?

It's me.

I'm home.

Hi.

- Hi. - Come here.

Hi.

Hi.

Let's go to our room. C'mon.

Come here.

Everything is on track with the investors.

I brought the contract.

If everything is okay, I'll take it back in January.

Great, my friend. Congratulations.

To us, Moreau.

- Hello. - Hi.

Girls night out was a blast last night, huh?

Tell me about it.

Tóia came back home at noon.

That's a beautiful fish, Lili!

Thank you.

Lili, do we have coconut water?

- Yes, ma'am. - Can you get it for me?

What about Tonico? How is he?

I came back earlier. I didn't see him.

I arrived this morning.

- Here, Ângela. - Thanks.

Would you like some water, Raul?

- Do you want me to get it for you? - Please.

Thank you.

It's unbelievable.

I told him, "You must learn how to change a tire!

I can't believe you don't know!"

I had to teach him how to change the tire of the Mercedes.

Hello?

Hello?

Who was it?

I don't know. They hung up.

- Who was it? - They hung up, Raul.

Tóia didn't sleep here last night.

- Who slept here? - You're going crazy.

Let me go!

Here we go again.

Did you get drunk here by yourself?

With make-up on?

Why did you tell the maid to arrive late?

- I should go there. - Wait.

And repeat what happened last time?

She attacks him, you defend her,

they make up, she disappears, and you get depressed.

Don't get involved.

Let them solve this.

- I can't go out alone? - You weren't with Tóia.

I wasn't with a man, Raul.

Is that what you want to know? I was alone.

- Okay? - Do you think I'm stupid like your ex?

I know you.

You always make things turn out the way you plan.

- And I'm not... - My ex-boyfriend

treated me way better than you.

- Come here. - You need medical help. Don't touch me.

Can you do me a favor? Tell Raul we'll come back later.

I'm sorry to intrude, but wouldn't it be better if you stayed?

Ângela would want you to stay.

If Ângela needs me later, you can call me, okay?

C'mon, Tóia.

Let's go.

Get your hands off me!

Get your hands off me.

I'm tired of having to defend myself!

Look at you. You look like shit!

I'm trying to make you happy.

I do everything I can for you.

And look what you do to me.

- You're disgusting! - Take a look!

Disgusting!

Disgusting!

- Disgusting! - That's it!

Now you've said the truth!

Is it so hard to tell the truth?

You want the truth? I'm not pregnant.

I'm not pregnant, and I was happy when I found out.

Hands off. Enough.

Don't touch me.

Stop it, Raul! Stop!

Excuse me.

Your mom called again. She asked you to call her back.

Tell her I'll call later.

Do you want me to tell Tóia to come here?

I can sleep here today if you want.

It was just a migraine.

Yes, ma'am.

The kids asked that a lot.

It was a great conversation, honey.

He was calm. He listened to everything.

I told him you and Raul

were happy. I told him about the new house.

He said it'd be nice to spend some days at the beach.

I think the sea breeze would help with Miltinho's asthma.

That's great.

What is it, honey? Didn't you like the news?

I did.

I liked the news.

It's just that...

These last few days have been hard.

Have you been arguing?

Honey, you're not an easy person, and marriage is complicated.

You must be patient, sweetie.

Trust me.

Ângela,

if you need anything,

you know you can count on your dad and I.

I broke up with that guy.

I need to focus my energy on myself.

What about you?

How are you feeling?

I'm fine.

The kids will come in the summer.

Which color?

Which nail polish color do you want?

The color?

I don't know.

What about that coffee brown?

Coffee brown.

Yes, I like that one.

What is this?

- It's an old stain. - You didn't notice?

- It was like that... - You didn't notice it?

Do you think I'm stupid?

You'll have to pay for this!

- You insolent... - Raul?

- You'll never touch me again! - Stop it!

- Stop. - Get out of my house.

Get out of my house! Out!

- Calm down. - Get out.

- Calm down. - You liar, hypocrite!

Come here.

You're going to hit me?

Yeah? You're going to hit me?

- Yeah? - Stop!

If I hit you for real, I'm going to kill you.

Come here.

Son of a bitch.

Fucking bastard.

Fucking bastard.

She hurt herself.

Go take care of her.

Miss Ângela.

Would you like some water, ice, anything?

Let me help you.

Come here.

Slowly.

Look at me.

There's a van leaving at 5:00 p.m.

I'm going to my mom's. You're coming with me.

All right?

Please, don't stay here.

If you stay, that man will kill you.

Do you hear me?

Please.

Let me help you.

You can take my car and my bags.

Take whatever you want.

Just go away.

Is that really what you want?

It's over, Raul.

If I go,

I'll never come back.

I don't want to go.

I want to fix things.

Look at what we have, what we're building.

You and I are the same.

We're not the same.

We never were.

What do I need to do for you to give me a second chance?

I'll do anything. Just tell me.

This is for the best.

Go take care of yourself.

After everything we've been through to be together...

I love you.

We love each other.

Look me in the eye.

Tell me you don't love me anymore.

Enough, Raul.

Enough.

Enough.

You can't leave me like that.

- You're my woman. You're my life. - Get off me. Stop.

No.

No.

I'm not yours!

I'm not yours.

I'm not yours!

If I can't have you,

no one can.

ÂNGELA MARIA DINIZ WAS MURDERED IN DECEMBER 30TH, 1976,

WITH THREE SHOTS ON HER FACE AND ONE ON THE BACK OF THE NECK.

SHE WAS 32 AND LEFT THREE CHILDREN.

RAUL FERNANDO DO AMARAL STREET WAS TAKEN TO THE JURY TRIAL

AND CONVICTED TO A SYMBOLIC SENTENCE OF TWO YEARS IN PRISON.

ACCORDING TO HIS LAWYER HE ACTED ON LEGITIMATE DEFENSE OF HONOR.

FEMINIST MOVEMENTS WITH THE SLOGAN "WHO LOVES DOESN'T KILL"

MADE A LOT OF PROTESTS AND SOCIAL PRESSURE.

A PUBLIC PROSECUTOR APPEALED THE DECISION.

A NEW TRIAL CONVICTED RAUL FOR HOMICIDE

AND HE WAS SENTENCED TO 15 YEARS IN CLOSED PRISON.

IN 2021, THE SUPREME FEDERAL COURT UNANIMOUSLY FORBIDS THE ARGUMENT

OF LEGITIMATE DEFENSE OF HONOR FOR FEMICIDE DEFENDANTS.

BUT THE STRATEGY OF QUESTIONING WOMEN'S REPUTATION

AS AN EXCUSE FOR ABUSE, SEXUAL ASSAULT AND VIOLENCE CASES IS STILL A REALITY.
