Doce de Mãe (English: Sweet Mother) is a Brazilian comedy-drama television series starring Fernanda Montenegro.

For her performance in the role of Picucha, Fernanda Montenegro was nominated to International Emmy Award for Best Actress.

[1] In 2013, Montenegro won the Award by the same role in the special shown in 2012, which gave rise to the series of the same name.

It is there that she also has an idea about how to help her unemployed son—start a business that resells the benefits normally reserved for the elderly, such as parking places and preferential customer service.

In addition to all of these activities, this indefatigable woman still needs to address other issues such as the suspicion that her late husband had a daughter out of wedlock.
