Terra e Paixão, the new work by Walcyr Carrasco, premiering tomorrow (8) on the Globo screen. Under the artistic direction of Luiz Henrique Rios, the action starts with the foot on the gas pedal and promises intense breathtaking moments, family drama, conflict and also relaxation. Travessia’s replacement comes with a mission to captivate audiences with a classicstyle soap opera.
The first chapter of Terra e Paixão begins with Aline (Barbara Reis) having to flee her land immediately with her son in her arms after her husband Samuel (Ítalo Martins) senses an impending invasion of the property. In the midst of the grandiose plantations of Mato Grosso do Sul, she runs with little João (Matheus Assis) in her arms and gets help from Caio (Cauã Reymond), of all people, the son of the man who ordered the attack, the powerful farmer Antônio La Selva (Tony Ramos). Cândida (Susana Vieira), the owner of the bar in town and a friend of Caio’s, is the one who protects Aline and João and puts her own life on the line trying to outwit the henchmen who are looking for them after Samuel is murdered. With humor, Cândida cleanses the skin of her protégés and adds amusing moments to the sequence of suspense.

Meanwhile, on the farm La Selva, the elegant engagement of DanielJohnny Massaro and Grace (Agatha Moreira). Irene (Gloria Pires) insists on criticizing Caio for being late and badly dressed for such an important date for his brother.

With the support of her family, a lot of panache and determination, she makes sure that she will defend her husband’s land and legacy.

After cruelly losing her mate, she shows determination and emotion, revealing her purpose to care for the land she inherited. And he will face anyone it takes. The exciting beginning of a saga of overcoming, full of hope and longing for justice.
