In a review titled Crônica de um Estranho Amor , it was noted that the film became a classic almost by accident, largely due to the very controversies that sought to bury it. The film was also a modest box office success in Brazil, being seen by over 1 million people during its re-releases in 1987 and 1991. Vera Fischer won the Best Actress Award at the 15th Festival de Brasília for her performance.

Set in 1937, right at the dawn of Getúlio Vargas’s authoritarian Estado Novo regime, the narrative unfolds through the memories of an adult man named Hugo. He looks back on a pivotal two-week period from his childhood when, as a 12-year-old boy, he was sent to live with his mother, Anna, in a luxurious, upscale brothel. amor estranho amor love strange love 1982 english exclusive
