Fiction
A panoramic look at the rise and fall of a Barcelonian lineage.
In a majestic villa surrounded by lush vegetation, we see three generations of a Barcelona family from myriad angles. Every character hides a secret: an illegitimate child, an impossible love, a murder. Rising above them all is imposing Teresa Goday, a gorgeous woman of humble beginnings who became the family matriarch. Their lives are the raw material, glimpsed through powerfully revealing moments, with which Rodoreda creates an unforgettable saga on the passage of time and happiness’ elusive fleeting nature.
