Plot

The story involves a beautiful, passionate woman named Lola, who is an outcast in a town dominated by superstition. Convinced that she brings misfortune to everyone, Lola shies away from other people. When her hiding place is discovered, she returns to her home town, when a series of freakish events inevitably lead to tragedy. Heartbroken and fearing for her life at the hands of the villagers, Lola loves hope one man's love and another's generosity change her life. No one trusts her except for the man who truly loves her.[3]

Production

This show was originally planned for the 20082009 season.[2] The first pilot, titled "Lola Calamidades", was filmed in 2008 with Christian Meier, Danna Garcia, Kristina Lilley and Andrea Lopez. Meier eventually left Telemundo to pursue other things. From the pilot's cast only Garcia, Maria Helena Doering, and Tiberio Cruz appear in the series. When the filming began on August 17, 2009 Telemundo had not yet cast the male lead. Martin Karpan was suggested, but due to the lack of chemistry between two leads his participation was reconsidered. At the end was the Argentinian actor Segundo Cernadas ("Muñeca brava" leading man) got the role.

Also, Elizabeth Gutiérrez was to play at first Priscila, but refused the role in favour of other production. The role was eventually taken by Adriana Campos.
