Dossier and Pilot script
Sara and Marcos have just swindled five million from a sanctimonious businessman and are planning to spend the rest of their days sipping mojitos under a coconut tree. But when Eva, their daughter, is taken in by the police, Marcos decides to hand himself over and collaborate. He dodges jail time and manages to avoid his daughter going to a foster home, but (bummer) condemns his life partner to jail.
Now Sara has been let out on parole, but there’s no one waiting for her on the outside. Her daughter feels like she was abandoned and wants nothing to do with her. And the son-of-a-bitch of her ex now works for the police and has hooked up with Patricia, the police inspector that put her away. To top it all, she finds out that while she was doing time, her father had fallen into the web of a gang of swindlers, who took him for everything he had, his life included.
Sara has just one thing on her mind: revenge. She’ll need to get the old gang back together, and do it behind everyone’s backs: Marcos, Patricia, her parole officer, her boss at the Burger King where she works and even her own daughter, whose affection she is trying to win back. There’s something strangely appealing about total chaos.
