Biography
Dina Sfat, stage name of Dina Kutner (São Paulo, October 28, 1938 — Rio de Janeiro, March 20, 1989), was a Brazilian actress, of Jewish origin. She made her film debut in 1966 in the film O Corpo Ardente; however, the consecration came with Três Histórias de Amor, chosen as 'female revelation' at the Cabo Frio Film Festival. Furthermore, she stood out in the film Os Deuses e os Mortos, securing the 'Best Actress' award at the Brasília Festival, something that would be repeated again for her performance in O Homem do Pau-brasil, but in the category of 'Best Supporting Actress'. In the work A Culpa, Sfat was chosen 'Best Actress' by the Air France Awards. Sfat debuted on television in 1966 in the soap opera Ciúme, on Rede Tupi. However, her first consecration came in the 1970s, being elected 'Best Actress' three times by the Imprensa Trophy (Chica Martins in Fogo sobre Terra, Risoleta in Saramandaia and Paloma Gurgel in Os Gigantes), in addition to two nominations for the same award ( Helô in Assim na Terra como no Céu and Zarolha in Gabriela). In addition, she was also chosen 'Best Actress' by the APCA Award in the role of Fernanda in Selva de Pedra. In 2009, on the initiative of her friend and also actress Itala Nandi, the Dina Sfat Award was created, to honor actresses who have the same profile [as Dina Sfat]: great performers, dedicated mothers, politically engaged women.
