No pun intended - when I saw the poster (main actress), my first thought was: this is Gal Gadot ... is it not? (that does not count as a pun, right?) In case you are or were as confused as myself: it is not her, this is someone completely different - equally beautiful. Way better actress though - and I don't think that is a subjective opinion.
This is based on a real person - I did not know that, but after watching the movie I saw some of the references that imdb posted on the page - the movie feels a bit episodic. But it is still well told - and quite harrowing to say the least! That just in case you are thinking about it - can't be too sensitive about certain things ... the end credits also give some extra information ... about real life ...

A good and extremely underrated film on a paramount misogynistic crime (and sexist Judicial system) in Brazil. All actors have good performances (Ísis Valverde is particularly successful in the leading role), cinematography is beautiful, direction is very competent, characters are deeply developped, and there are quite good dialogues. It is almost a sexploitation movie, considering the high number of sex scenes involving Ísis Valverde, Gabriel Braga Nunes, Bianca Bin... Several people criticized the film for not showing many important (and polemical) events of her life, being therefore an incomplete biographic movie. I agree with the diagnisis that it is not enough for a biopic (what the title may suggest), and a serious absence was not including the buzarre murder of the housekeeper after her separation and before she moved from Belo Horizonte to Rio de Janeiro. However, as a movie on violent misogyny and the structural sexism, which had the murder of Ângela Diniz as a turning point case, it succeeds.
