At Globo since the 1980s, Guel Arraes invented a way of making television with the grammar of cinema — fast, popular and formally restless, from Armação Ilimitada to his own production unit.
A Dog’s Will, a miniseries that became a feature, is the perfect example of his project: Suassuna translated into audiovisual language without losing the verse.
