About Bendito Fruto
An accident involving a flying manhole cover leads to a chance meeting between two childhood friends: a widow and the owner of a beauty parlor. Thus begins an entertaining game of seduction that brings memories and hidden desires to the surface - furtive passions that end up threatening the hairdresser's de facto marriage.
Directed by Sérgio Goldenberg, Bendito Fruto leans on a strong ensemble — Otávio Augusto, Zezeh Barbosa, Vera Holtz — 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 comedy titles of 2004.
