Cacau is an engaging saga of family secrets, clandestine loves and sacrifices, all sweetened by the irresistible taste of chocolate and the magic of cocoa plantations.
In the heart of the Alentejo countryside, Mariana and José Diogo are two children whose backgrounds could not be more different: she is the fruit of a loving relationship; he's an orphan. She has a safe haven in her family to run to when she gets hurt; he can only run to her.
