The Globo miniseries If I Close My Eyes Now has made its debut on Atresmedia’s Atreseries channel for Latin America and the U.S. Hispanic market.

Inspired by Edney Silvestre’s novel of the same name, the psychological thriller takes place in mid-1961, when Paulo (João Gabriel D’Aleluia) and Eduardo (Xande Valois) decide to skip class and go swim in the lake and end up finding the mutilated body of a woman, Anita (Thainá Duarte), on the riverbank. The main suspect in Anita’s killing is her own husband, the dentist Francisco (Renato Borghi).

If I Close My Eyes Now centers on the children, who believe in Francisco’s innocence and decide to investigate on their own, with the help of the mysterious Ubiratan (Antonio Fagundes), the real killer. While other murders are taking place, Paulo, Eduardo and Ubiratan need to uncover the truth before they become the next victims.

If I Close My Eyes Now is a miniseries written by Ricardo Linhares and directed by André Câmara and Joaquim Carneiro, with art direction by Carlos Manga Jr.

Linhares said: “The plot deals with the difficulty of love, family and social relationships, and the secrets that each one hides in order to play their role in the community.”
