Resumo do filme Malévola em inglês.

Answer 1

Maleficent (Malévola in portuguese) is an american fantasy thriller film, directed by Robert Stromberg and starring Angelina Jolie, as the main character. This movie takes inspiration from the animated classic Sleeping Beauty, but from the perspective of the vilainous Maleficent.

A slghtly different version of the tale Sleeping Beauty, it begins in a forest near Moors, a kingdom where enchanted beings live. One of them is Maleficent, who as a teenager, is a powerful and respect winged fairy who cares for all in the Moors. Her homeland borders a kingdom where humans live and run by cruel King Henry.

One day a human called Stefan, King´s Henry son,  enters the Moors and steals something. He is caught but Maleficent helps him..they spend a lot of time together and they grow close, causing the two crazy teens to fall into forbidden love.  One day he stops coming and leaves, because he sets to make fortune.

A year later, the King seeks to take over the magical land, and attacks the Moors, but Maleficent defeats him in battle. The King demands revenge. and his now-grown son Stefan succeeds by betraying the fairy and stealing her wings. Maleficent swears revenge on Stefan and she gets her chance when the prince becomes king and has his first child, a daughter named Aurora - as you all may remember in Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent curses Aurora to fall into a death-like sleep, after pricking her finger on a spinning wheel, on her 16th birthday.

Stefan then demands that all the spining wheels in the kingdom be collected, and orders his daughter to be secretley raised in the woods by three good fairies, who will return her to him, after her 16th birthday. But Maleficent refuses to stay away from Aurora, and ends up developing maternal feelings for the girl.
