Cama de Gato (Cat's Cradle) is a Brazilian telenovela produced and broadcast by Rede Globo in 2009 and 2010.
Plot
Imagine a strong and tender hearted woman, a confused man, and a villain capable of anything for money. We have the perfect love triangle for a classic love story. Cat‘s Cradle tells the tale of a man that hits rock bottom and manages to bounce back through true love. Gustavo, once a poor, kindhearted youngster, is now a successful entrepreneur in the perfume business but has turned cruel, arrogant, and miserable. Alcino, his best friend and business partner, helped him achieve his present success. When Alcino finds out that has a fatal disease and has a few months to live, he decides to play a prank on Gustavo to help him rediscover the decent man he once was and the joy of living he once possessed. Gustavo is married to Veronica, a rich, selfish, spoiled, and ambitious woman who has never loved her husband. Alcino's prank takes an unexpected turn when Veronica, the story‘s great villain, interferes, manipulates the surprise, and makes Gustavo lose almost everything after being taken for dead and accused of a crime. While trying to pick up the pieces of his life, Gustavo meets Rose, a simple, hard-working woman who raises four kids by herself with great spirit and optimism. Because of her good heart, she starts to help Gustavo to put his life back together. Gradually, Gustavo and Rose develop feeling for each other, leading our hero to rediscover his humanity through the hands of this newfound love. A contemporary and urban soap opera, Cat‘s Cradle blends suspense, plot twists, surprises, redemption, and romance to produce a stirring story of love, life, and rebirth. Cat’s Cradle: An entrapment opens the doors to redemption.
