Rock Story

Gui used to be a well known rock star, until a rival musician took his public spotlight and his marriage away, forcing him to start over professionally and personally. He’s imperfect and often careless, but generous at heart, and the series tracks the messy practical and emotional work of rebuilding a life that once seemed secure. Complications arrive when he learns he has a teenage son he never knew about, and when a surprising new romance blooms. Over time he faces the chance to choose differently than he did before, rethinking career, family and priorities while the show keeps its focus on relationships and music without resolving every question immediately. The tone alternates between humor and melodrama, keeping viewers invested.

It premiered in 2016, created by Maria Helena Nascimento, Ricardo Linhares and Angela Chaves, directed by Dennis Carvalho with Maria de Médicis among others, and starring Vladimir Brichta, Nathalia Dill, Alinne Moraes, Nicolas Prattes and Rafael Vitti, for Brazilian audiences.

The series did not score major international awards. Detailed records of Brazilian television awards show limited information here, so if there were local nominations or festival mentions they are not widely reported in international databases; interested viewers should check Brazilian industry sources for any national recognition, domestic coverage is sparse.

Audience reaction was moderate, with a 6.8/10 average from a small sample of votes; the show blends melodrama and music, tackling fame, redemption, fatherhood and messy love, and relies on its soundtrack and the headline actors to drive emotional stakes. Plotlines follow telenovela rhythms, with regular cliffhangers to keep viewers hooked regularly.

As a music driven telenovela, it reinforced a trend of integrating contemporary popular music into serial drama on Brazilian TV and boosted visibility for younger cast members. Its soundtrack and storyline found a steady domestic audience. The show also fed into conversations about celebrity and the music business in culture.
