Synopsis
VANDA
Vanda Lopes, 37, is happily married and has two children. She owns a hairdresser in Costa da Caparica and lives a simple life. Vanda's world falls apart on the day she catches her husband, Mário, with another woman. Mário also betrayed her financially and stole everything from her. Vanda doesn't have a cent and can't take it anymore. Desperate, she gets a plastic pistol and enters a branch of a bank.
From the moment she makes the first robbery, Vanda begins to be investigated by the police. Elisa Gonçalves is a forensic psychologist who is surprised by Vanda, starting to pursue this robber who breaks all known patterns of this type of crime: Vanda is a woman and acts alone, with a gun and the same black disguise. That's why they call her the "Black Widow".
Vanda will be arrested when she makes an emotional mistake: being a mother will force her to make a fatal choice...
In total, there will be 12 heists full of adventures and creative thefts that push the story forward and change Vanda's life forever.
