Synopsis

Set in Rio de Janeiro, ''Fina Estampa'' centers on Griselda, a tough, hard-working handywoman with a very well-defined set of values. She managed to raise her small children on her own when her husband disappeared. Now she lives with her three adult children and one grandson in a fancy neighborhood where she does odd jobs and is well-known and liked by everyone. However, her life is far from easy. Her daughter Maria Amália is hard-working like herself, but becomes involved with Rafael, a young man with dubious morals. Her son Quinzé was left by his wife, Teodora, who also left behind their small child. Her other son, Antenor, a medical student who is embarrassed by Griselda's humble ways, will do anything to keep her away from his life. He falls in love with Patrícia, the daughter of René, a renowned chef and restaurant owner, and Teresa Cristina, a vain, arrogant , unscrupulous woman whose favorite pastime is tormenting her nutty housekeeper, Crô. René is smitten with Griselda's simple but honorable approach to life, arousing jealousy in Teresa Cristina, who eventually becomes her biggest rival taking revenge to the next level with her manipulative ways. Tensions arise after Griselda wins the lottery and people suddenly turn up, like her "dead" husband, Pereirinha, and her son's ex-wife. She will have to face the excessive ambitions of her son, her rival, and ex-husband, among others.
