Casa Grande

Amidst pressure from his parents to choose his future career and study for the university entrance exams, Jean ends up falling in love with Luiza (Bruna Amaya), a mixed-race girl in a nearby (but less regarded) school. As Jean and Luiza get to know each other, it becomes apparent that Jean’s father Hugo (played by seasoned actor Marcello Novaes) is trying to hide the demise of his hedge fund company. As their new reality sinks in, Hugo begins to fire his most trusted staff and to cut back on essentials at home. But despite everyone’s best efforts (Jean’s mother Sonia even takes a job selling cosmetics), this family’s economic troubles end up threatening their very survival.
