Plot

Capadocia, a groundbreaking women's prison in the heart of Mexico City, emerges from the crucible of political maneuvers and power plays. Two formidable projects clash within its walls, each as controversial as their leaders. Championing a humanistic cause is Teresa Lagos (Dolores Heredia), who passionately advocates a comprehensive rehabilitation program for the incarcerated women. In stark contrast, Federico Márquez (Juan Manuel Bernal) masterminds a commercial venture, exploiting the inmates' inexpensive labor under the guise of equipping them with skills for societal reintegration. The riveting narrative of Capadocia weaves together three central tales — those of Teresa, Federico, and Lorena (Ana De La Reguera), a seemingly perfect housewife and mother. Lorena's picturesque existence, however, is revealed to be a facade as fate uncovers a series of sinister events that push her into a life behind bars. This powerful drama series boldly mirrors the stark realities of a women's prison and the world beyond its gates, blurring the line between the two until the bars are the only distinguishable difference. It lays bare the full spectrum of human nature, exposing life as an unremitting struggle for survival punctuated by personal ambitions and the harsh penalties meted out by justice, or sometimes by raw emotions. The series takes its name from the ancient land of Capadocia, now part of Turkey, once home to the legendary Amazons, a tribe of fierce female warriors. The name serves as a potent symbol, echoing the inmates' own battles within the confines of the prison.
