Abandoned by her husband Saro Balsamo, and suddenly found herself at the head of the erotic magazine Playmen, revolutionizes the sector publishing market by riding the wave of female emancipation and imminent cultural revolutions on abortion, divorce and family status.
From an adult magazine, Playmen it becomes a space for discussion and comparison where writers, artists and intellectuals pass by. The series takes up classic canons of streaming serials, bundling together themes, characters and forcing nuances.
Mrs. Playmen And a biopic that dialogues with period drama (series that portray an era), but which does not give up a melodramatic and sentimental component. And which tries to tell, in its own way, that period of great social transformations, of freedom and musical and cultural innovations that were the Seventies.
For those who love the lives of heroines from our recent history.
