Plot edit
Rafa Farías (Sebastián Estevanez) was a boxer, and his pregnant wife died in a car crash. Reasoning that his wife died because the ambulance did not arrive to the site in time, he ends his boxing career and becomes a nurse instead. He consented with the removal of his late wife's eyes for organ donation. Those benefited Marcela Ríos (Eleonora Wexler), who had become blind during a street attack. In present day, both of them work at the same clinic. She is married to Javier Mansilla (Ramiro Blas), who had caused the crash by falling a sleep while driving, and then escaped without helping the crash victim.
Production edit
The filming of the telenovela started in July. It was meant as a telenovela for the prime time, meant to compete with Las Estrellas from El Trece. It is produced by Quique Estevanez.[1] The airing time became controversial, as Telefe had already aired the telenovela Fanny la fan in the prime time, and cancelled it after a week because of its poor ratings.[2] The production announced the first airing date, September 11, during a press conference at Puerto Madero.[3]
Sabrina Rojas, a model who became famous in Showmatch, made her initial work as an actress in this telenovela.[2]
Actress Manuela Pal plays the villain, and complained about the hot scenes shot in the telenovela.[4]
