What's it about

The theatrical action begins on the same night as the novel's presentation, when someone knocks on Clara's door. She hasn't seen her in over two years, and the street has punished her, but she recognizes her. It is Manuela, the evicted elderly woman who inspired her character "Cándida." "I've come for you to take me in, just like in the novel." Clara, against her will, is forced to accept the old woman into her home for a time, recommended by the novel's publisher. They have sold the product with self-fiction tones, the print run has been very ambitious, the invested money and Clara's own prestige as a writer are at stake. If the public finds out that Clara has done in real life the opposite of what she does in the novel, everything will fall apart.
