Hilda Furacão
[1] The most sought-after prostitute in the Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, brothels during the 50s and 60s, Hilda Müller (Ana Paula Arósio) was the daughter of a highly respected middle-class family.She scandalized society by breaking away from her family and shattering taboos, fleeing on her wedding day and seeking refuge in a brothel and adopting the alias Hilda Furacão.The mission of adapting the book Hilda Furacão for TV was given to Glória Perez by Mário Lúcio Vaz, then director of Central Globo de Produções.[4] To portray the 60s, Perez spoke with activists of the time, including Mário Lago (also a member of the cast) and Apolônio de Carvalho.[4] The scenes in the fictional Santana dos Ferros were recorded in Tiradentes, where the production temporarily closed streets and altered facades.
