The Women of La Principal tells the story of mothers, daughters, and sisters, of all those who dedicate themselves to a task and fight for their happiness - a happiness that remains as vibrant and fleeting as the light shining on the vineyards of their village. Spain in the summer of 1893: While her father and brothers attempt a fresh start in Barcelona, Maria must stay behind at the ruined vineyard La Principal to manage what is left of it. For her, it is the disappointment of her life; for everyone else in the village, it marks the beginning of a new era. Because Maria unexpectedly finds a way, with great courage and even more stubbornness, to transform La Principal back into the estate it once was and herself into the most powerful woman in her homeland. Admired for a lifetime, envied for a lifetime. But when a body is found on the eve of the Spanish Civil War, Maria's legacy is put to the test.
