About The Radio Star
Geninha and Óscar are a couple who loves music. He's a good songwriter, she sings well. Despite this, their parents hate each other and do not seem willing to allow their marriage, nor the creation of a local radio for them.
Directed by Arthur Duarte, The Radio Star leans on a strong ensemble — Maria Matos, António Silva, Maria Eugénia — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 1944.
