Amor e Dedinhos de Pé (literally: 'Love and Tiny Toes'; Template:Lang-es; Template:Lang-fr) is a 1992 Portuguese-language Portuguese-French-Spanish film of romantic drama genre, directed and written by Luís Filipe Rocha and Izaías Almada, and starring Joaquim de Almeida, Ana Torrent and Jean-Pierre Cassel. It is based on the novel Amor e Dedinhos de Pé: Romance de Macau by the Macanese writer Henrique de Senna Fernandes.[1] The film was premiered in Macau on 20 March 1992,[2] and was released in France on 21 October of the same year.[3] In Portugal it was released on 15 January 1993,[4] and in Spain on 6 August of the same year.[5]

Summary

The film shows the social difficulties of a romance born on a cold night in Macau, when a seductive playboy is in love with a young woman who washes his toes. The story serves to make a portrait of the Portuguese colonialist society of Macau. In the end of the 19th century, the Portuguese Christian society melancholically looks towards Europe and proudly turns its back on China. In this context the love between Francisco and Victorina reflects all the contradictions of the social nucleus to which they belong.
