:07:00
She must be promised
to some elegant man there.
:07:04
- It's not that.
- I'll be the mayor here.
:07:09
I'll bring progress to Agreste
and Leonora will be proud.
:07:12
You will bring progress?
This will take time.
:07:16
Nora can't wait.
:07:28
Leonora is very naive.
:07:32
She had a big depression
that harmed her health.
:07:38
She was engaged with an idiot
who wanted her money.
:07:44
And she did all he wanted.
Thank God Almighty...
:07:51
the police were after him.
And he got arrested.
:07:58
But the poor one was sad,
sick, even anemic.
:08:04
That's why I brought her here,
to recover from that.
:08:11
Why hasn't Leonora
ever told me?
:08:14
She was afraid
of what you might think.
:08:22
In my time, in Agreste,
a girl had to be virgin...
:08:27
or she'd be finished,
a prostitute. Useless.
:08:32
I think it's still like that.
:08:35
But in Sao Paulo
it's different.
:08:40
I mean, the bastard
didn't take only her money.
:08:46
Do you understand?
:08:52
I thought you'd ask me
to leave Leonora alone.
:08:57
- I wanted to marry her.
- And is virginity important?
