Globo’s ‘Três Graças’ Premieres With Teenage Pregnancy, Fake-Meds Scheme and a Hidden-Cash Statue

Overview

• The telenovela debuted Monday, Oct. 20, introducing three generations—Lígia, Gerluce and Joélly—in a São Paulo community.
• In the first episode, 15-year-old Joélly learns she is pregnant and declines to identify the father.
• Lígia’s pulmonary illness worsens as free pills from the Ferette Foundation prove ineffective in the neighborhood.
• Businessman Ferette fronts the distribution while Arminda is portrayed as his partner and lover in the scheme.
• A locked room reveals a statue called As Três Graças that hides cash, establishing a crime-mystery thread tied to diverted money.
