Plot

The series tells the adventure of Dona Picucha (Fernanda Montenegro), a lively lady 85 year old who always causes great confusion and thrilled everyone with their life lessons. She is the mother of 4 children: Silvio (Marco Ricca), Elaine (Louise Cardoso), Fernando (Matheus Nachtergaele) and Susanna (Mariana Lima). When Picucha decides to move to a nursing home, after suspicions arise that her late husband Fortunato (Francisco Cuoco) had a daughter out of wedlock. Rosa (Drica Moraes), is the daughter of an old nanny Picucha, and had the college tuition paid by Fortunato. Coincidence?
