Synopsis

In 1831, the first Emperor of Brazil returned to Europe under adverse conditions, on the English warship Warspite. In view of his abdication to the throne of Brazil, this is a moment of deep reflection for D. Pedro I, who ponders the mistakes and successes of his administration since the moment he arrived in the country with his family at the age of 10, in 1808.

Critics' reviews

"Bodanzky [created] something more fluid and human: a fair fictional portrait that gives us hints of layers and multitudes that might just be a first step to make us rethink the way we learn and look at Portuguese history"
