In life, tricks are cooler than in the circus. Olga 2nd Montini returns to San Antonio to stay with her mother, sisters and the family circus. And immediately upon arrival, she learns that her daughter Olga 3, whom she abandoned in infancy, is in love with her own father. Olga 3rd has no idea who her biological mother and father are. And then the life of all circus performs tricks cooler than they are in the arena. Here and HIV, and Alzheimer, and machismo, and secret weddings, and secrets of the past, and fake landowners, and fake admirers, and false patient, and unrequited love, and drug addiction and much more.
! The first girl in each new generation of the Montini family is necessarily called Olga, so there is Olga 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th.
What can you say – the series is great! A variety of characters, stories, characters. There is something for actors to play, and they do it brilliantly. And brilliant here is not only the play of actors, but also scenery, outfits, makeup. Still, in the arena, artists should shine. In every way. A well-made story based, by the way, on a real person (Olga 1st Montini has a real prototype). It is difficult to single out someone individual, or some story, because everyone liked it very much.
The details show the life of a traveling circus, life in houses on wheels, the continuity of generations, the complexity of living together a large number of people in a limited space. The presence of characters from Russia is additionally fun. It's very funny to see how Russians are represented on the other side of the planet. Natasha Ulanova shows all the "chips" of a Russian woman: she knows how to cook everything - from dumplings to wedding cakes, drinks vodka (as if without her, a native), during a thunderstorm, Chileans wear capes with hoods, and Natasha a fur hat. Haha. In the intricacies of the Russian language scriptwriters did not go, so Russian Natasha says “my mother, my country”. When he cooks, he sings a song. What? Of course, "Katyusha" - blossomed apple trees and pears, etc. However, I recognized “Katyusha” only by the melody, because because of the strong accent of the word is difficult to understand.
Not a minus, just an observation. Here, as in many Chilean series, the director does not bother with the difference in the age of the actors. Therefore, characters from different generations are played by actors of the same age. Melo and Nogueira play father and daughter, although Amparo Noguera is older than Melo.
The best actor is H. Sosa, the best actress is K. D. Girolamo, there are no worst.
