Plot

[edit]

Gloria (Betiana Blum) a severe and acid widow dies suddenly. Her three daughters, Susana (Gabriela Toscano), Virginia (Griselda Siciliani) and Malena (Celeste Cid), all single, will verify that the disappearance of their tremendous mother does not imply any release. Their step sister, María Eugenia, the villain of the story, sold the house of their parents upon their mother's death. As if the failure of their lives, especially with men, was marked by some kind of curse.

Production

[edit]

Para vestir santos features several musical numbers. All the lead actresses had previous experience with the genre. Griselda Siciliani studied dance and sing, worked in the theater musicals Revista Nacional, Sweet Charity and Quiero llenarme de ti, and the television musical Patito Feo. Gabriela Toscano made her first work in a musical. Celeste Cid worked in the musical video "Asesíname" by Charly García, and Gloria Carrá is a musical artist.[1]

The series portrays Celeste Cid's character through the discovery of her sexuality in a lesbian relationship. Although the Argentine television had previously featured homosexual characters in fiction, it was rarely a main character as is in this case. The series was contemporary to the sanction of the same-sex marriage in Argentina.[2]
