About The Claudia Case
Based on the true events that took place in the 70s, in Rio de Janeiro. The body of beautiful girl Cláudia Lessin Rodrigues, actress Márcia Rodrigues's sister, was found in the seashore. After Police investigation, it was found she had been murdered on a party by a rich industrialist's son and his socialite hairdresser buddy, after much sex, alcohol and drugs, specially Mandrax (methaqualone). She'd probably resisted being raped and the killers threw away the body in the water. One of the guys tried to escape flying to Switzerland.
Directed by Miguel Borges, The Claudia Case leans on a strong ensemble — Kátia d'Angelo, Jonas Bloch, Carlos Eduardo Dolabella — 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 crime titles of 1979.
