About this episode

This episode explores Madonna's journey as an artist who feels uninvited and her decision to embrace continuous movement rather than conforming to imposed roles of aging.

Há artistas que parecem nascer no lugar certo, no momento certo, como se o mundo já estivesse preparado para eles. E há outros que chegam cedo demais, ou tarde demais, ou simplesmente sem convite . Madonna pertence a este último grupo. Desde muito nova, viveu com a sensação de que nada lhe estava garantido. Do outro lado do espelho, seguimos Madonna desde a infância até ao momento em que decide não envelhecer como papel imposto, mas como movimento contínuo. _________ There are artists who seem to be born in the right place, at the right time, as if the world were already prepared for them. And there are others who arrive too early, or too late, or simply uninvited. Madonna belongs to this latter group. From a very young age, she lived with the feeling that nothing was guaranteed to her. On the other side of the mirror, we follow Madonna from childhood to the moment she decides not to age as an imposed role, but as a continuous movement.
