About A Hora Mágica
In the 1950s, while radio is slowly being surpassed by television as the leading broadcast medium, Tito Balcárcel, a voice actor, becomes romantically involved with Lúcia, a fan of his who drags him into a mysterious crime plot.
Directed by Guilherme de Almeida Prado, A Hora Mágica leans on a strong ensemble — Raul Gazolla, Júlia Lemmertz, Maitê Proença — 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 thriller titles of 1998.
