ASHES OF PARADISE (1997)
SYNOPSIS
Carlota (Mercedes Morán) is a paleontologist who recently discovered the fossil remains of a hippogriff, a mythical animal with the head, wings, claws of an eagle, and the body of a lion. This gave her access to generous funds from a foundation that covers all of her expenses. However, the investigation made little progress over the years, leading to rumors of embezzlement. The institution decided to send Constanza (Natalia Oreiro) to oversee the reserve. There, Carlota and Constanza clashed after meeting, as Carlota felt insulted at being investigated by someone of a lower rank than her. Despite this, the two joined forces when Freddy (Diego Velázquez), a man with a terrifying figure, appeared and planned to exploit the land where the mythical animal was discovered.
