Lisbela finds herself pondering the notion of leaving Douglas behind and taking up with Leleu, but while he's obviously interested in her, Leleu has problems of his own with Inaura (Virginia Cavendish), a hot-tempered woman who has been having an affair with Leleu when she can get away from her husband Frederico (Marco Nanini), who is aware of his wife's infidelity but lacks the courage to do anything about it. Lisbela e o Prisioneiro received its North American premier as part of the 2004 Los Angeles Latino Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
