"The Voice of the Heart" (or "Soul Mate", literally translated from Portuguese) is a Brazilian telenovela, which was filmed in 2005. Script writers, Valsir Carrasco and Thelma Guedes, created tears touching and romantic story about True Love, over which no control nor the machinations of others, or even Death.
The series begins in the 1920s in the city of Roseiral. There lives a wealthy entrepreneur, Raphael (Eduardo Moscovis), who owns plantations for growing roses and puts his Soul into his business. But most of all he wants to meet his True Love to find happiness. And soon he meets a ballerina named Luna (accent on the first syllable) (Liliana Castro), who recently arrived in the city.
Further exciting developments the viewer will see himself while watching the telenovela. "The Voice of the Heart" is a series that covers topics such as:
Among the actors I would like to say that this is probably the biggest and best role in the career of my beloved Priscila Fantin, who performed it with great talent and charm. Her character Serena is the Eternal Light of Love, the miracle of God on Earth.
During the series, each character undergoes a certain transformation, which changes its personality, way of thinking, character, attitude to other people.
Raphael is a kind, decent man. Sincere, loyal, yearning for his dead wife. But even he has a number of disadvantages. Raphael jealous, too trusting detractors (who desire Evil to him) and don't believes friends (who wish him Good). This is due to the fact that he does not believe in human meanness, because he is honest. He simply does not believe that someone is able to deceive him, to wish him harm, so he ignores all warnings. In addition, Raphael did not love his wife Luna for her Soul (as he thought), but rather for her elegance, beauty, manner to look good, possession of etiquette, her creative talents. And Raphael, in my opinion, were the following tasks throughout the series: 1) to understand who his real friends and who are enemies; 2) to learn to trust his Love; 3) to stop trying to find in Serena his dead wife Luna and to remake here in the likeness of Luna, and take it in a new way, with new habits and experiences; 4) to acquire the ability to appreciate Serena's kind heart and her spiritual beauty, not superficial (etiquette, manners, the ability to walk on heels and dress like a lady); 5) to consider her unique personality; 6) to love Serena's Soul really, without any conventions.
Serena is a sincere, open, kind girl with a pure Heart. She is generous, merciful, and has pride and self-respect. As the image of Luna (her past life) she was provided a hassle-free life and almost didn't grief (except some events), in the form of Serena, she was forced to undergo a series of tests, which tempered her character, made her a really strong spirit person, brave and noble. In the new life the girl was born in an Indian tribe, therefore, has acquired the wisdom of its people and the valuable knowledge that has helped her in many aspects of life. Serena's spiritual growth is clearly tracked throughout the series.
Christina is a beautiful, insidious, determined girl who from her early youth is unrequited in love with Raphael. Her love was so strong that she gave her soul to the Devil for the opportunity to get this man (as well as his wealth) at any cost. Her love was transformed into a mad obsession, a passion of wild power that took over Christina's mind. The pain of the rejected woman, resentment, injustice, despair, bitterness, unbearable suffering - these reasons served as the starting point of Christina's behavior and her evil deeds. This girl had two ways: to overcome the bitterness and resentment in her soul, to leave the house of Raphael and find her happiness or to seek Raphael at any cost, no matter what. Christina chose the second way, although it was destructive.
Guto is a criminal who has served time in prison, who in his own way loves Christina and helps her in all her atrocities, because he hopes that she will stay with him. Guto's love is rather a thirst for possession, because he is not sufficiently developed spiritually to understand the essence of true love. At first he makes an unpleasant and repulsive impression, but the founded forgiveness changes everything for him....
If you want to have a good time, enjoy a beautiful romantic telenovela about True Love, which overcomes any obstacles and even Death, then I recommend you to watch "The Voice of the Heart". Also, the series will be interesting to people who believe in reincarnation or have ever encountered in life with supernatural phenomena. Perhaps the situation in which the characters fall, will help you open your eyes to some things or give the opportunity to resolve certain issues. I must admit that I discovered this series quite by accident, but it was very relevant to me for many reasons. And today, after watching the last episode, I am ready to say that now "The Voice of the Heart" has become one of my favourite Brazilian TV series.
Thanks to the writers, actors, directors and producers for their Titanic work and for creating such a Beautiful Film! This series warmed my Soul.
