Synopsis
The Clone (O Clone, 2001) is a Brazilian telenovela where science collides with a love that refuses to die — watch it online on iFILM. Produced by Globo and directed by Jayme Monjardim, it spans two decades and two cultures.
On a trip to Morocco, Brazilian Lucas falls for Jade, a young Muslim woman promised to another man. The romance is forbidden, and when Lucas's twin brother Diogo dies, family friend and scientist Albieri quietly grows the country's first human clone from Lucas's cells. Twenty years on, Jade finds herself facing two identical men: the one she loved and the one born in a lab. Murilo Benício and Giovanna Antonelli anchor this strange triangle.
The show was among the first to bring Muslim daily life to a wide Brazilian audience in such detail, and the first local production to wrestle with cloning. Belly dance, calls to prayer, and arguments between faith and genetics gave it a cult following well beyond Brazil. Slow, patient, melodramatic — built for viewers who like a story that takes its time. Stream every episode of The Clone online on iFILM.
