The character of María in the remake that will soon be released by Mega de “The Lord of Querencia” will be led by Lorena Capetillo, a role that was originally played by Patricia López.
It is worth remembering that The teleserye was first broadcast by TVN in 2007, reaching historic audience levels, which is why the Vicuña Mackenna channel decided to opt for a new version for its prime time slot.
In the production of the state channel, in fact, Paty López was the actress who played the woman who suffered the systematic and unpunished abuses of José Luis Echeñique (Julio Milostich)without the possibility of accounting for the humiliations to which she was subjected by her employer. Lorena Capetillo, who in this version of the private signal will play the victim of the despotic role of Gabriel Cañas, He spoke with Página 7 about what the preparation for these scenes was like.
“Once I read from a director that there are many films about wars, deaths, shootings, that we see and consume without questioning ourselves, very accustomed to those scenes and stories that seem to slip through our consciousness.but what rapes due to their humiliating nature, no one can endure them for long, and sometimes it is better not to know or not see them”Lorena began her words.
“I made the decision not to watch anything from the original version”
“The painful thing is that rapes are, heartbreakingly, more everyday than everything else. They happen more frequently day by day and in silence and impunity and this director said that it was urgent to talk about this. That occur within the family. More than in any other scenario,” the interpreter warned.
“And I agree, we cannot turn a deaf ear to human pain, we simply cannot,” said the actress.
Despite the valuable material that the TVN soap opera could have given him, Capetillo expressed that “when they called me to join the project, I made the decision not to see anything of the original version and to save myself a little to understand it.”
“Being able to read to know this text in detail from the inside, diving into the story and seeing what was born from intuition,” he explained.
However, Lorena Capetillo admits that she had the opportunity to talk with the actress in charge of the old version of María in history.
“Paty and I saw each other a month after we had already been recording and our lives came together. It was beautiful because it was in an interview on the radio, where we talked about this. There he began to tell me some details of his experience and we agreed to have a coffee, to tell each other more about the processes of both.”Lorena shared.
