### **ABOUT THE FILM:** *In Portuguese, Spanish and English with English subtitles.* At ten years old, Carlota Joaquina is promised in marriage to João of Portugal. Gifted and well-educated, the young princess is approved by the Spanish court and sent to Lisbon, only to face a destiny far less glamorous than the portraits and rituals of nobility had promised. João, introverted by nature, prefers sacred music and flower gardening to the company of his new wife. Following the death of the crown prince and the mental decline of Queen Maria I, the couple ascends to the Portuguese throne. Amid the turmoil of the French Revolution and Napoleon’s invasion threats, the Portuguese court carries out a historic and discreet escape to Brazil—an episode that forever changes the colony’s fate and ushers in a new chapter of Luso-Brazilian history.
