Everything is going well between Teixeirinha and Mary Terezinha. They are finishing a film, and she is pregnant and happy. However, during a routine check-up, Teixeirinha discovers that Mary has leukemia and could die if not treated soon. Desperate, but trying to hide the truth, he sends for an American specialist who confirms the diagnosis. Accidentally, Mary learns about the illness and asks a doctor friend for her opinion. In the meantime, Teixeirinha relives the suffering of when he lost his mother and appeals to faith. He consults a spiritual healer who says that a kind woman with a beautiful smile could help him. Immersed in so many memories, he goes to the Sanctuary of Fatima in Portugal to see if he can find the path to Mary's cure.
Directed by Pereira Dias, Meu Pobre Coração de Luto leans on a strong ensemble — Teixeirinha, Mary Terezinha, Angelito Mello — 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 music titles of 1978.
