Natalia Oreiro brings her own charge to the cast. She adds another layer to the sweeping historical drama. Alessandra Negrini rounds things out, giving the ensemble even more star power. The archive carries 4 scene clips from this production. They span nude scenes, topless shots, and sultry interludes that lean into the story's sensual undercurrent.
