Passione. Every family has its secrets.
Synopsis
Starring a host of TV Globo‘s most renowned actors, the telenovela "Passione" centers around family relationships in Brazil and Italy and the secrets pertaining the characters.
Fifty-five years before the story begins, Beth, pregnant by another man, meets and marries Eugene Gouveia, who initially pledges to raise the child as his own. Throughout her life, Beth believed her son had died at birth, but Eugene, on his death bed, reveals that he could not bear the thought of raising another man‘s child and had in fact given him away to an Italian couple, together with a large sum of money, to be raised in Italy.
Meanwhile, in Tuscany, Toto Mattoli, a widowed farmer, leads a quiet life with his elder sister, his children and his grandson. He is content and lives in blissful ignorance of his true heritage.
An astonished Beth, the matriarch of a large business empire, learns that she was married for years with a liar. Unsure of how to tell her own family about the existence of this new heir, and not knowing where he is, she sets her mind to finding him and granting him his rights to the family estate.
While pondering what to do, Beth confides in Claire, Eugene‘s nurse, who was present at the time of his confession. Claire agrees to secrecy, but sees the chance of a lifetime. She plots with her lover Fred to win over the heart of Beth‘s Italian son and seize his inheritance.
After several twists and turns, Toto falls passionately in love with Claire and eventually discovers that his real mother is alive in Brazil, where a new life awaits him. The revelation will cause a series of entanglements and the revelation of new secrets, and nothing will ever be the same for the Gouveia and Mattoli families.
