Plot
In the heart-stirring drama of "El verano que vivimos" set in 1998, we follow Isabel, a young journalism intern, who relocates to Vigo, Pontevedra (Galicia, northwest Spain). She's assigned the unenviable task of the obituaries section by her new boss, Don Mauricio. On her first day, she stumbles upon an anonymous letter regarding a woman named Lucia, which sets her on a path of intrigue. This mysterious obituary, arriving earlier than its annual due date, piques Isabel’s curiosity, compelling her to seek Don Mauricio's permission to delve deeper into this cryptic tale.
Her investigation leads her to Gonzalo, the enigmatic writer of the obituaries, residing in a house near a cliff. However, she arrives to find not Gonzalo but his son, Carlos, who reveals that his father recently passed away. Intrigued by the obituaries and the elusive Lucia, Carlos joins Isabel's quest, hoping to uncover more about his father and this mysterious woman who isn't his mother.
Together they untangle a tale that weaves back to 1958, when a young Gonzalo ventures to Jérez de la Frontera, Cádiz (Andalusia, south Spain) to visit Hernán, a vintner from a long lineage of grape cultivators. Here, Gonzalo becomes entwined with Hernán's family, meeting his parents, young sister Adela, and his betrothed, Lucia. A passionate, secret love blossoms between Lucia and Gonzalo, even as Adela harbors feelings for him.
The narrative deepens as Hernán travels to Sevilla, leaving Lucia in charge. As Gonzalo works alongside her, their attraction intensifies, leading to a clandestine romance. But their love story is marred by unforeseen complications: Hernán's early return and Adela's fatal accident while fleeing from Gonzalo.
As Isabel and Carlos delve deeper into this saga of love, friendship, and betrayal, they unearth not only the aftermath of Adela's death and Lucia's fate but also the profound impact this story has on their own lives. "El verano que vivimos" is a captivating tale that intertwines past and present, binding its characters with the threads of mystery, passion, and the alluring power of a secret past.
