Good Morning, Veronica

2020

Good Morning, Veronica (2020-2024) is a Brazilian crime series available on Netflix. It is an adaptation of the eponymous novel by Brazilian lawyer and crime writer, Raphael Montes.

Set in Sao Paulo, across 3 seasons, Good Morning, Veronica tells the complex story of an organised crime gang running a baby farm and child trafficking operation, and protecting the identity of a serial killer.

At the heart of the story are orphanages.

Some of the orphanage children end up with respectable careers, others are criminals. All have been victims of crime.

Veronica Torres (Taina Muller) begins in the civil police but from Season 2 she is a vigilante as the organised crime gang has infiltrated the civil police. She is also an orphan and *spoiler alert* an adoptee.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group. See glossary HERE
