Info

Plot

Paola is a girl born in a traditional family from Colombia, or at least that's what they are trying to be. Her father Uriel is a priest, her mother Hilda is a medium and her sisters, Claudia and Chavela, have ended up being all the contrary to what their parents had expected from them to be. On her behalf, Paola is a young Latin American girl who will fight to gain her independence in a hard social and family context, full of stereotypes and appearances that make it difficult for her to fit any molds. She will become an illustrator, learning to live thanks to the strokes. With a feminine vision of the word, this young girl will learn to live her life, a life she'll take as a witness of a series of small crisis that will form her personality as she grows up.
