THIS NEW SPANISH PERIOD SET TV DRAMA
is set in the 16th century, with the plot inspired by the communities of Beguines, communities of women who since the 13th century defended an alternative way of life independent of marriage and the Church. The Beguines dedicated themselves to contemplation, but also to action, through crafts, teaching or caring for the sick that provided benefits to 
society while allowing them to be self-sufficient. The beguines were spaces of relationship and freedom that, despite having popular support, were highly questioned by those in power.
