About A Sapateira Prodigiosa
A young shoemaker marries an older man, but he, jealous, leaves home. The woman opens a tavern and her husband returns in disguise to test her fidelity. Television adaptation of the play by Spanish poet and playwright Federico Garcia Lorca, translated by Carlos Wallenstein and directed by Varela Silva, with Amália Rodrigues in the lead role.
Directed by Fernando Frazão, A Sapateira Prodigiosa leans on a strong ensemble — Amália Rodrigues, Barreto Poeira, Costinha — 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 tv movie titles of 1968.
