Carolina Galvão

The principal character in Helvécio Ratton's delightful film has been adapted from a book and comic created by the Brazilian cartoonist Ziraldo, and tells the tale of a happy-go-lucky 10-year-old child growing up in a city in the 60s.

Set in the 18th and 19th centuries, the miniseries draws on historical events to portray the behind-the-scenes story of Brazil's independence, blending humor and adventure.
