Production
Filming of the telenovela began in November 2019 in Cambará, Rio Grande do Sul.[28] Production also took place in Ponta Grossa, Diamantina, Itaguaí, and in Ouarzazate, Morocco.[29][30] On 16 March 2020, it was announced that filming of the telenovela was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[31] RecordTV was forced to bring back cast members filming in Morocco to Brazil. Because of this, the premiere, which was scheduled for 14 April 2020, had to be postponed by RecordTV.[32] Filming resumed on 19 October 2020 with strict safety protocols.[33] During the suspension it was decided that the telenovela would no longer film in Morocco.[34]
