Love Strange Love (1982)

"Love Strange Love" is a Brazilian drama drenched in taboo subject matter. It's an arthouse-adjacent production notorious for its explicit content since release. The film became a genuine flashpoint in Brazilian cinema history. This was largely due to a young Xuxa Meneghel appearing nude, a controversy that trailed her for years. Vera Fischer shares the spotlight here too, bringing her own unguarded screen work to the archive. Two scenes from the film live on the site. Each one captures a different side of its scandalous reputation. Fischer's entry stands as a striking piece of her early filmography. Meneghel's remains the more historically loaded of the pair. That's given how it shadowed her later career as a beloved television personality. Together they make this hub a rare stop for anyone curious about the film that once shook up an entire industry.
