Plot

First Part “La Colorina” (Liliana Ross), a woman so-named for the color of her hair, works in a nightclub as a prostitute together with her close friend “La Rata” (Violeta Vidaurre). Together they go to Daniel’s (Patricio Achurra) mansion looking for fun with Iván (Gonzalo Robles), Daniel’s free-loading brother-in-law. La Colorina and Daniel fall in love, however their relationship is not acceptable to Ana María (Paz Irarrázabal), Daniel’s cold and calculating mother. Alba (Grimanesa Jiménez), Daniel’s wife, can’t have children, so Ana María pays La Colorina to get pregnant with her son and hand the child over once he is born. La Colorina accepts, but she changes her mind when giving birth and flees the city.  At the same time, Mirta, La Colorina’s neighbour, leaves her husband, Pejerrey (Arturo Moya Grau), and their two children to become an actress. With Pejerrey’s consent, La Colorina decides to raise her neighbours’ two children to confuse Ana María. Second part Years go by, “La Colorina” (Liliana Ross), by now a grown woman, has brought up her son, Fernando (Samuel Villaroel), and Mirta’s children, which she has brought up as her own. Meanwhile, Daniel (Patricio Achurra), now widowed, is still in love with “La Colorina”. His mother (Paz Irarrázabal) still opposed to the relationship, obviously rejects her grandchild. Ana María also has a conflict with her servant “Chagua” (Ester Mayo), who has always fought for the family, secretly in love with Basilio (Armando Fenoglio), Ana María’s husband, and loving Daniel as if he were her own son. “La Colorina”, always accompanied by “La Rata” (Violeta Vidaurre), manages the establishment were she used to work. Franco (Mario Bustos), one of her sons, falls in love with Cristina (Soledad Pérez); proposes to her and she accepts, since she is noble and has a good heart. When Mirta (Alicia Villablanca) returns to take her children back, “Pejerrey” (Arturo Moya Grau), still in love with her, agrees to tell the truth, but they don’t get back together.
