| Summary: | The adaptation of novels for cinema is highly frequent and so customary that the Academy of North American Cinema has always awarded an Oscar for best original story and another for best adaptation. Two novels by Henrique de Senna Fernandes were adapted for cinema, *Amor e Dedinhos de Pé* by Luís Filipe Rocha (1992) and *A Trança Feiticeira* by Cai Yuanyuan (1996). We intend to undertake a reading of the film by director Cai Yuanyuan to understand the extent to which his creativity and art of cutting and pasting, adding and interpreting a Macanese story, under a Chinese gaze, contributed to the success of a film that garnered so many awards. |
