In this literary adaptation to big screen of the Viscount of Taunay's Inocência famous novel produced by well acknowledge Barreto's family that left a strong and solid trail at Brazilian cinema industry with more that seventy productions, quite successful if they had dealing with bound in the troublesome and complex Brazilian system struck in many issues.
The story barely summarized in 19th century took place at Minas Gerais countryside in Brazil colonial where still had an imperator, over an impossible romance between a wanderer Dr. Cirino (Edson Celulari) and Inonência (Fernanda Torres) only single daughter of the coarse farmer Martinho (Sebastião Vasconcelos) who already had pledge Inocência to young farmer called Manecão (Ricardo Zambelli) soon she got enough age or so, when Dr. Cirini has been healing her of some recurrent fever, meanwhile rises a mutual attraction among them.
In the same time arrives there a wetted German researcher of butterflies Dr. Meyer (Rainer Rudolfh) looking for shelter and carry on his seek for undiscovered ones, the bumpkin and the wary Martinho keep on eye on all moves of the foreigner guest Dr. Meyer due him spoke freely some European adjectives to your daughter, meanwhile on the sly of night Cirino and Inocência dating over the moonlight, all this with extreme regard, any sexual relation has been made whatsoever, nonetheless run away is out of matter over Inocência's look, due she had too much concern over his father, then she suggests that Cirino looking for her old godfather Cesário (Fernando Torres) that only him can move his father of the wrong promise.
It's too underrated at my humble vision, after I have been watched 11.726 pictures gave me enough feelings to ensure that such offering was beautifully produced and the whole drama is quite accurate due I'd lived in such environment in my childhood in a small village also is hardly religious oriented on behavior of the all characters because in such time the church had a powerful hold in all South America as the whole world as well!!
Thanks for reading.
