About Karina, Object of Passion
A stripper is arrested for killing her gigolo who exploited her as a prostitute under the name of Karina. Her despair turns to ardent passion when she meets a lady lawyer who promises her that she will be able to get her out of jail very quickly. But both ladies will have to fight an outlaw who will do whatever he can to possess Karina.
Directed by Jean Garrett, Karina, Object of Passion leans on a strong ensemble — Angelina Muniz, Cláudio Cunha, Rosina Malbouisson — 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 drama titles of 1982.
