Synopsis
Liliana has a sparkle few can deny and no one can resist. The trophy wife of a border magnate living in Texas, she’s seemingly impeccable. But beneath that polished exterior lies a fierce determination to survive at any cost. When Liliana’s true desires break the surface, she’ll have to decide between the value of obligation versus the price of freedom.
Character Breakdown
LILIANA - 28-ish years old. Wife of a border magnate. Sports the prerequisite dyed blond hair that a proper upper class, border wife sports. She was born in Mexico to a proper family and she's always decked out. Always dressed to the nines. Even when playing tennis, she's impeccable. And underneath all that bling and pomp is her youth. It's in there somewhere. All her life she's been an object of desire because she's got that thing that only a few people have -- that sparkle. The kind of charm that can't be taught.
MARITZA - Same age as Liliana more or less. Mari is a visual artist based in Chicago, with South Texas roots. Some might call her a "boi" or a "stud" and she wouldn't mind. She has a few tattoos she loves, some she regrets. She's done the dread thing, but now is sporting something more hip. More gender neutral. Black used to be her favorite color but now she's not minding rocking the retro gear she grew up with. She's an artist and is well respected in her community, some might call her well-known. She loves fiercely and is fiercely loyal. This is the friend you want for life.
YUYA - Older than Liliana by at least 12 or 15 years, but perhaps older. Yuya raised Liliana and her siblings and had served that household until she imported herself to Liliana's new household after she married. She's usually smarter than anyone is the room, and she always knows what the heck's going on. She knows her place but hides her resentment well. It is what it is.
FABIOLA - The 25-year-old only daughter of Alberto Cantu, Liliana's husband. Fabi lives in Houston. Has always had everything. If you asked her, she'd consider herself liberal and progressive but it all depends on your definition. She's been working on her degree for seven years, going on eight now and she's so over it. It's a requirement really. To get a big chunk of change from her Dad. Hey, they made a deal.
