Divine Love (Шаблон:Lang-pt) is a 2019 Brazilian drama film directed by Gabriel Mascaro. It was screened in the World Cinema Dramatic Competition section at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival.[1] It tells the story of a deeply religious registry office clerk who uses her position at the births, deaths and marriages department to try to dissuade couples from getting a divorce. Joana (Dira Paes) does everything in the name of the sanctity of marriage and the Christian family. As she waits for a sign of recognition for all her efforts, a marital crisis of her own brings her even closer to God.
