“Stolen Lives – Isabella’s saga” is my new True Crime doc-series and it had its debut event last Monday, June 10th, at Cine Belas Artes, in São Paulo. The event celebrated the conclusion of a very difficult project which spanned almost six years! Produced by Grifa Films, the series dives deep into the cruel underworld of international child trafficking. During the event, Maurício Dias – producer and general director presented the whole team. At the stage were also Canal Brasil’s representative, our creative producer Marinho L. de Andrade, Bianca Corona, executive producer, and me. Shot in Brazil, France, Switzerland and Monaco, the series will debut on June 20th 9.p.m. at Canal Brasil and Globoplay.
Dafen is a tiny district in the middle of one of the largest cities on Earth and it is home to a huge community of outstanding artists – some of the best oil painters that exist. Through the last decades they have specialized in reproducing the works of the masters: Da Vinci, Dali, Van Gogh, Rembrandt etc. They use the same techniques, brushstrokes, paints… it is a deep dive into the minds and souls of these past icons, a true work of art! This talented work was able to built a huge and strong market of millions of dollars per year, abroad and in China.
