This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
Xuxa e os Duendes (English: Xuxa and the Elves) is a 2001 Brazilian fantasy
musical adventure children's film directed by Paulo Sérgio de Almeida, Rogério Gomes and Márcio Vito with a screenplay by Vivian Perl and Wagner de Assis. Based on personal experiences lived by Brazilian TV host Xuxa Meneghel. It contains in his cast Xuxa Meneghel, Guilherme Karan, Debby Lagranha, Leonardo Cordonis, Gugu Liberato, Ana Maria Braga, Emiliano Queiroz, Angélica, Wanessa Camargo.
The kingdom of the elves is celebrating the delivery of the responsibility of taking care of the nature to the prince Damiz. But villain Gorgon holds the little elf on the wall of Little Girl Nanda's room and convinces his partner, Rico, to buy the girl's house and take "progress" to the forest. Kira will have the mission to free the stuck imprisoned in the wall and save Earth.
The film was produced by Diler Trindade with co-production by Globo Filmes and Warner Bros., and was released in theaters on December 14, 2001. The film was watched by approximately 2,657,091 box office according to Ancine, and earned more than 11 million Brazilian reals for its producers. As was already common in other Xuxa films, Duendes was received with suspicion by specialized critics. However, all were unanimous in saying that they represented a breakthrough in comparison with the previous ones. Praising the end of over-merchandising, but criticizing the film's script for being "unstable, with weak performances," an extremely childish script and incoherent dialogues. Writing "Duendes" is a change, has cliches in tons, but for Xuxa, who did everything a little on the screens, this is no problem and that the film was produced just to please its audience, in this case a multitude of children.
The success of the film led Xuxa to create a sequel titled Xuxa e os Duendes 2: No Caminho das Fadas, released the following year.
