Plot

[edit]

The most sought-after prostitute in the Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, brothels during the 50s and 60s, Hilda Müller (Ana Paula Arósio) was the daughter of a highly respected middle-class family. She scandalized society by breaking away from her family and shattering taboos, fleeing on her wedding day and seeking refuge in a brothel and adopting the alias Hilda Furacão.[2] The miniseries contrasts antagonistic contexts (religiosity and profligacy behavior; revolution and counter-revolution), as well as, with antagonistic characters (Hilda Furacão and Frei Malthus (Rodrigo Santoro). The series ends during the 60s, after the 1964 Brazilian coup d'etat.

Production

[edit]

The mission of adapting the book Hilda Furacão for TV was given to Glória Perez by Mário Lúcio Vaz, then director of Central Globo de Produções. Perez ended up busying herself with other work, and Hilda's concept went through several potential authors until she returned to the project in 1997.[4] To portray the 60s, Perez spoke with activists of the time, including Mário Lago (also a member of the cast) and Apolônio de Carvalho.[5]

Ana Paulo Arósio, then hired by rival network SBT, was specially assigned by Globo for the miniseries. The idea for the casting came from director Wolf Maya.[4]

The scenes in the fictional Santana dos Ferros were recorded in Tiradentes, where the production temporarily closed streets and altered facades. The Hotel Glória, in the city of Rio de Janeiro, passed as the Minas Tênis Clube, and the Niterói City Council served as the Belo Horizonte City Council.[6]
