reVolver Podcasts Brings Beloved Telenovela Así en el barrio Como en el Cielo to U.S. Audiences
reVolver Podcasts Distributes Así en el barrio Como en el Cielo
reVolver Podcasts, a dynamic multicultural media company based in Dallas, is thrilled to announce that it will be distributing the beloved Mexican telenovela Así en el barrio como en el cielo across the United States, starting next week. Originally produced in 2015 by TV Azteca and crafted by talented writers Leticia López Margalli, Guillermo López, and Nayura Aragón, this series has carved a niche in viewers' hearts through its enchanting blend of drama, romance, and comedy.
The narrative centers on two vastly contrasting families: the modest Los López López, who run a local chicken and egg stall, and the opulent Ferrara family, owners of a global fashion empire. Their lives take an unexpected twist due to a prophecy linked to the legendary Avándaro rock festival in 1971, leading to a reversal of fortunes—where the rich find themselves in poverty and the humble ascend to affluence. The storyline weaves through themes of love, betrayal, redemption, and moral dilemmas, creating a compelling tapestry that resonates beyond cultural and class boundaries.
Running for an impressive 120 episodes, each lasting between 35 to 65 minutes, the series was initially aired five nights a week in Mexico from February to July 2015. Marcela Guirado, Luciano Zacharski, José Alonso, and Patricia Bernal spearhead the cast alongside strong performances from Juan Manuel Bernal, Mariana Torres, Armando Torrea, and Verónica Merchant. Notably, the show features antagonists such as Bárbara de Regil, Elizabeth Cervantes, Fran Meric, and Rodolfo Valdés, who add numerous layers of intrigue to this gripping mob drama. Directed by Fabián Corres and Juan Patrón Fox, the series encapsulates the richness of Mexican culture and storytelling.
Beyond romance and drama, Así en el barrio como en el cielo touches upon pertinent themes of social class and identity, inviting viewers to reflect on moral ambiguity in the face of shifting circumstances. It advocates for the view that what defines us isn't merely our circumstances, but rather the choices we make when confronted with life's unpredictable nature.
Jack Hobbs, President of reVolver Podcasts, expressed the company's vision for the project: "At reVolver Podcasts, storytelling that transcends cultural divides is at the forefront of what we do. This telenovela serves as a poignant reminder that despite our differences, humanity is bound together through love, betrayal, and moral choices."
