Sinopse

A popular soap opera (or telenovela) in Portugal running from 2013 to present, Os Nossos Dias follows the daily lives of its many characters. Among the typical soap opera-esque romances featured in the show, significant social-awareness issues have also been featured, i.e., domestic violence, living with HIV, and homophobia. Despite the thoughtful, progressive, and socially responsible scripts and production of Os Nossos Dias, in 2015, RPT (the national television station airing the show), garnered widespread international criticism for censoring 2 scenes showing two of the major male characters, portrayed by Duarte Gomes and Sisley Dias, kissing as part of a major 'coming out' gay storyline. David is from Coimbra, a city in the middle of Portugal, known by its historical college campus. He goes to Lisbon to become a chef, but meanwhile, he'll get in the middle of two girls who happen to be best friends (Daniela & Susana). But everything will change when the sports' guy Xavier moves in with his family (Cardoso) to the same neighborhood. If the portuguese audience were really into soaps, we'd have a common joke: 'David Gomes loves to go gay on national TV!' That's not the case, so this is a private joke, only for us.
