Poster for Cavalo Amarelo

Cavalo Amarelo

1980 · 1 season

A chatty, character-driven soap where theatrical flair collides with stuffy family tradition, easy to dip into and pleasant to linger over.

Ivani Ribeiro
Genres
Soap, Drama, Comedy
Overview
The irreverent Dulcinéa struggles to keep her revue theater, *Mambembe*, afloat; the building itself belongs to the traditional Maldonado family. The patriarch, Salvador Maldonado—a conservative man—keeps a tight rein on the clan, maintaining control over both the business and his children: Joana, an elegant and snobbish woman who is the staunchest defender of the views held by Pops, as the children call him; Téo, who has always silently submitted to the old man's high-handedness; Walter, dominated by his older sister and his father's favorite; and Lalucha, the youngest, a film student who challenges the status quo and rebels against the family's stuffy conservatism.
