Abstract

This article aims to analyze the miniseries A Cura (Globo, 2010) including it into a scenario of fantastic narratives produced by Brazilian television in the first decade of the XXI century. Present in Brazilian television fiction since the 1970s, the fantastic narrative (TODOROV, 2008) has a remarkable role in the development of a narrative style and a genuinely Brazilian aesthetics (BORELLI, 2001).
