Pop Rock Cop (English)

  • This story is inspired by a true story how a very talented young Portuguese/Canadian performer, with an international fan base dealt with and overcame significant adversity that threatened to end her music career. Before Amalia’s rise to musical success she naively decides to become a police officer at 22 to help fund her musical career and to make a positive difference in the world. As she is at the pinacle of her musical career she becomes unknowingly entangled with corrupt police officers in her department who make false accusations against her in an attempt to frame and arrest her for something she did not do.

Wanting to escape from both her parents’ obsessions (and her own inner urgings), Fatima strikes out on-her-own in the wild world, hoping to connect with an older, married man who has preceded her to Asia.

Euphoria & Other human longings (English)

  • EUPHORIA is a modern day erotic romance, based around childhood best friends Heidi and Fatima who have been abidingly writing each other letters from adolescence through adulthood. These two amazing women have been there for each other throughout marriage, adultery, struggles with depression, and all of the coming of age romance and drama that best friends go through. Heidi, the “country mouse” is a wealthy, elegant yet sultry mulatto who lives on the idyllic sleepy island of Vancouver Island in British Columbia. Portuguese-Canadian Fatima, the “city mouse” lives in Toronto; she is naïve, quirky and contemporary. You could say she is wild at heart- yet spiritually awake (Think “Sex in the City” meets “Eat, Love, Pray”).
