About Luiza Fonseca

Luiza Fonseca was an actor from the early sound era of cinema who appeared in the 1936 film 'The Young Great-Grandfather.' Her career appears to have been extremely brief, with this being her only known film credit. Like many actors from this period, especially those in smaller roles or from international cinema productions, detailed biographical information is scarce. The film itself suggests she may have been working in either Portuguese, Spanish, or possibly Brazilian cinema, given her name. Her single known appearance places her among the countless actors who made brief contributions to early cinema but left little trace in historical records.
