Based on Brazilian author and playwright Ariano Suassuna’s 1971 modernist book, A Pedra do Reino e o Príncipe do Sangue do Vai-e-Volta, this time-traipsing made-for-TV miniseries recounts the story of an old clown, poet and writer Pedro Dinis Quaderna, who yearns to write the definitive saga of his nation’s identity—and assert his own genius in so doing.
