Synopsis
Pariente a la fuerza is a story that takes place in Los Angeles and centers on George Cruz (Ecker), a famous 50-year-old Hollywood screenwriter who suffers a mid-life crisis in the shadow of his only success, the death of his mother and the betrayal of his wife Leticia (Andere).
His frustration, loneliness and feeling of failure, coupled with his mother’s last wish, lead him to the other side of the border in Mexico where he meets Carmen Jurado (from Regil), a beautiful Mexican singer who becomes his muse, his star and his great love. George regains the inspiration and happiness that make him feel alive. But love does not come only when two families come together, and the contrasts between the Jurado family and the Cruzes will create fun situations and others that will touch the hearts of the public.
