Caramelo 2025

The 2025 Brazilian film Caramelo is a heartwarming drama/dramedy, set for an international release as a Netflix original on October 8, 2025. Directed by Diego Freitas, who also co-wrote the script, the film stars Rafael Vitti as Pedro, a talented and methodical chef on the verge of opening his own restaurant—the pinnacle of his professional ambition. However, his perfectly planned life is shattered by an unexpected and "life-changing" medical diagnosis, plunging him into an existential crisis. The narrative focuses on Pedro's journey of emotional healing and self-rediscovery, which is catalyzed by a chance encounter with a friendly, caramel-colored stray dog named Amendoim (who plays the titular "Caramelo," a reference to the common Brazilian street dog breed, the Caramelo mutt). The dog becomes a "fur-midable" friend and emotional anchor, injecting hope, humor, and a new perspective into Pedro's life. The film is an emotional ode to hope, family, and the transformative, unconditional love of an animal. The primary human cast supporting Vitti includes Arianne Botelho, Noemia Oliveira, Ademara, Kelzy Ecard, Bruno Vinicius, Roger Gobeth, Olívia Araújo, Cristina Pereira, and Carolina Ferraz. It is a Brazilian production by Migdal Filmes. Read More
