Stupid Wife is a Brazilian LGBTQ+ drama and romance web series, loosely based on the short story Remember Us by Nathália Sodré.[1][2] Produced by Ponto Ação Produções and starring Priscilla Reis and Priscila Buiar, the series was directed by Natalie Smith and Priscilla Pugliese and premiered on YouTube on 4 August 2022.[3][4]
The original fanfiction quickly gained popularity, leading to a Christmas special with four episodes released in December 2022, and a second season that premiered on 18 May 2023.[5][6][7] The plot addresses important issues such as Dissociative amnesia and Depersonalization disorder.[8]
The series received nine nominations at the Rio Webfest 2022 and won four awards, including “Best Drama Series” and “Best Drama Ensemble”.[9][10]
Luíza (Priscila Reis) and Valentina (Priscila Buiar) are law students and classmates, but from completely different worlds. Luíza sees in Valentina all the flaws she believes a person can have, and despises her. One day, however, Luíza wakes up ten years older and, to her horror, married to Valentina. Having suffered a trauma that led to dissociative amnesia, she does not remember her marriage or her son Léo (Thomás de Araújo). In this process, she must rediscover herself, while Valentina seeks to win back her wife.
