Onza Distribution adds "The Color of Love" to content catalogue
Onza Distribution has added “The Color of Love” (‘A Fazenda,’ 120x60’), to its catalogue. The content is a telenovela from TVI set to premiere this month.
“The Color of Love” is a story of passion and conflict, centered around the forbidden love between a Portuguese woman, Eva, and an Angolan man, Talu, whose lives are changed by a controversial inheritance. When Gaspar, a Portuguese businessman based in Angola, dies unexpectedly, he leaves his entire estate to three Portuguese women. Eva and her sisters, who had been struggling financially, inherit an unexpected fortune that includes one of the largest agricultural estates in Angola. However, Talu, a young Angolan engineer and Gaspar’s protégé, is excluded from his will in favour of the sisters. Despite their strong attraction, Eva and Talu soon find themselves on opposing sides in a heated estate dispute, ensnared in a web of conspiracies that tests their loyalties. The telenovela was filmed in both Angola and Portugal.
“‘The Color of Love’ is set to closely follow in Cacao’s footsteps and become a highly successful telenovela,” says Carlos Garde, Onza’s Managing Director. “We’re very excited; this telenovela showcases a spectacular cinematography and captivating African scenery that enhances a story filled with love, luxury and tension.”
Onza Distribution has also confirmed the sale of two other popular TVI-produced telenovelas, further strengthening its reach in the African market. Both telenovelas are available in the international sales agency’s catalogue for MIP Cancún: “Cacao” and “Payback” (‘Ouro Verde’).
