Maria Henriqueta Was Here

In 1872, the Emperor of Brazil, Pedro II, travels to Porto and stays at the Grand Hotel du Louvre, property of Maria Henriqueta de Mello Lemos e Alvelos. Today, the attempt to make a film about this episode becomes an invocation. Maria Henriqueta is with us. Memories, sounds and sensations take over the screen.
