I enjoyed the the setting, the cast, the narrative approach. But... among several disappointing aspects, authenticity was at the top. When we spot authenticity details distorted in a story, be it in film or book, we are usually compelled to discredit the rest of it. Two of the main elements that I feel took away from the authenticity: The dance rhythm, was so embarrassingly off, I had to close my eyes; the music choice for the ending was not at all identifiable, rather the rendering of one of the traditional Fatima tunes would have evoked an authentic tone. These types of blunders are typical of less than good research, by those who fail to seek and receive the relevant input. Those unfamiliar with these two elements will get a skewed representation. I also would like to have seen more of the Portuguese idiom, which would have also added more authenticity.
