| Synopsis | Not a femme fatale, Amelia Palomino is neither a passive victim. A widow, still young and beautiful, she manages a large family inheritance, until she dies during a robbery. With this new investigation, Ana María Maqueo insisted on her criticism of the national institutions and their customs, among them the subjugation of women, and the use of beauty as a currency and as a tool for getting power. And portrayed a Mexico devastated by the 1985 earthquake, economic crises, smuggling, and early drug trafficking. Captain Alatorre reconsiders here his idea of justice in a dazzling finale. |
