The prequel to the RTP soap opera has already been released."},"content":{"rendered":"

It is entitled \"The Origin of Ambition\" and came on Angolan television this year to reveal the dark past of the Voss family.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The soap opera \"Windeck\" was an independent production that premiered in Angola more than ten years ago, in 2012. The following year, it was broadcast on RTP1. In between, it became a huge phenomenon in other parts of the world, such as Brazil and France. Here, it captivated hundreds of thousands of Portuguese, who followed closely what people are able to do to get rich quickly and easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than a decade later, a new film inspired by that universe has finally arrived. It is a prequel, the first episode of which premiered on 22 January in Angola on South African broadcaster DSTV's Kwenda Magic channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This comeback makes perfect sense. After all, it has been broadcast countless times on various international channels \"and has taken on a life of its own on social media,\" Cor\u00e9on D\u00fa, producer, director and creator of the concept, explains to NiT. She adds: \"Lovers of the telenovela have been asking for the project to return in some form for several years. The idea of a prequel comes precisely because it opens up an interesting narrative opportunity by telling the backstory of some of the original version's favourite characters.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So the fans were largely responsible for this return. That's also why the screenwriters decided to write a story that takes place before the original narrative, contrary to what many viewers might have expected. \"The inspiration came from the sense of nostalgia that the fans showed when they asked for it to come back,\" says the 39-year-old filmmaker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly, the narrative begins right where the original ended: with the villainous Rosa Bettencourt in prison. Over the years, this character has become enigmatic, arousing more and more interest. In \"Windeck: The Origins of Ambition\" we will delve into the secrets of the past of the Voss family, who ran major media companies in the town where it all takes place. We will also get to know \"all the drama and toxicity of the relationship between the Vosses and Rosa\".<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the original episodes were written and produced between 2012 and 2013, Cor\u00e9on believed that the story was over, as it followed the classic format of beginning, middle and end. \"However, art takes on a life of its own when it starts to burn out. The big surprise was that we received positive feedback for a decade and thanks to social media we realised how much people of different nationalities, cultures and ages wanted a new telenovela.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
