Pasaporte a la libertad

This was a good series; it has good acting and a great and important storyline.

However others have mentioned the inconsistencies in the sets (cars, cigarettes, uniforms) but what we were amused by, is one scene where they are crossing a gate where there were German soldiers with a tall building in the background that had long red hanging pieces of material with a swastika on each one. The swastikas were backwards!

Otherwise it was good series, well done, good characters. It is an important story regarding the history of WW2. Watching movies like this get you wondering where we are heading in this world now, and if history will repeat itself (more or less).

The German uniforms are too sloppy, epaulettes far too big, old guard insignia on right arm is incorrect, Farr too many American cars for Germany in WWII But overall a great series.

This might not be as accurate as a lot of people would like but this is an amazing series about an amazing woman in a really difficult situation highly recommend give it a chance do what I did & ignore the negative reviews this was a great watch, it has been slated because it's a story that not everyone enjoys because of what it covers & yes she might of only saved a few families from persecution but she was only doing it for a year & was in a very difficult position.

Like I've said these type stories & historical biographies have been told a lot but this is a story I hadn't heard of & thoroughly enjoyed watching.

On first viewing, I thought it was an American production. All the (Brazilian) actors speak in English and do not try to put on Brazilian or German accents for verisimilitude.

The sets are amazing, as standing-in for Hamburg in 1938-1942. Plus the casual anti-Jewish actions and brutality on the streets, almost (but not quite) incidental to the action. But demonstrating how casual that physical cruelty can be.

While others have decried some of the incidental matters (like American cars on the streets and badges of ranks), the dialogue is subtle and develops the plot(s) very well.

It's a story that needs to be told - from a source about which western history is too often ignorant. Brazil was the only South American country to commit forces to WW2 - 25,900 "Smoking Snakes" to Italy.

Would any of your readers know the theme music at the begining of the drama, It sounds to me like Samuel Barber's adagio for strings but it is not played long for me to tell.
