BUDAPEST: The iconic Mexican nun and poet Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz takes the spotlight in Juana Inés, which is part of Comarex’s NATPE Budapest slate.

The series follows her life as she overcomes adversity and pursues her passion for knowledge. “Juana Inés is a fiction series that reviews the most significant moments in the life of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz,” says Marcel Vinay, Jr., the CEO of Comarex. Comarex’s NATPE Budapest slate also features Young at 40, about a man who awakens 27 years after falling into a coma to find that the future is not quite what he expected.

Other catalog highlights are It Was Worth It!, I Am Franky and State of Grace. The latter title centers on a congresswoman who seeks to legalize drugs in Mexico. “It’s a series with very high production values that brings one of the country’s key issues to the small screen,” says Vinay, Jr. It Was Worth It! tells the story of a successful real estate agent who becomes the guardian of her friend’s daughter when the child is orphaned.
