Good news. the film has been restored and released on DVD with subtitles in Portuguese, English, France, and Spanish.
(possible spoiler alert) It is a nice traditional comedy where a person starts lying to pretend he is something he isn't and getting into trouble for that. in this case, it is the father (Antonio Silvo) and one of his daughters that are actively lying; the rest of the family goes along. But it all ends at a happy note.
One thing I missed was closure on the 'plans' of the captain. We don't get to know what the plans are and therefore it is hard to determine if the parents should really be happy with their daughter marrying the captain.
