Ângela Diniz: Murdered and Convicted

Accused of drug trafficking, Ângela begins a romance with columnist Ibrahim Sued, but soon finds herself attracted to businessman Doca Street.

After her lawyer advises her to settle down to better her chances at custody, Ângela pursues Doca – who soon becomes jealous of every man and woman in his new partner's life.

After a heartfelt plea, Ângela finds herself back with Doca in the resort town of Búzios, but his controlling behavior continues to plague their relationship – and is exacerbated when a group of friends arrive in town.

1979. Doca's trial is met with support, condemnation, and a media fervor that takes Brazil by storm. Later, Ângela’s loved ones use their anger to start a movement aimed at changing laws that protect abusers.
