‘Amor en Custodia’ To Launch Simultaneously On Both Sides Of The Border.

Azteca America presents its first simultaneous novela launch with its Mexican counterpart TV Azteca in the July 18 debut of “Amor en Custodia.”

The story is based on Juan Manuel (played by Sergio Basañez), a farmer who has practiced martial arts since his youth. When he finds it difficult to support his wife Gabriela and his young daughter Tatiana, he decides to go to the Mexico City to look for work.

Once in the city, Juan Manuel uses his martial art techniques to prevent the kidnapping of the beer magnate Paz Achaval Urien (played by Margarita Gralia). The man sent for the abduction turns out to be the chief of security of Paz’ husband Alejandro. Paz is eternally grateful to Juan Manuel, and takes him for a special agent, later hiring him as her bodyguard. The close daily contact between Paz and Juan Manuel is a breeding ground for romance.

Paz has a teenage daughter, Barbara, who is capricious and suffers from an eating disorder. She also has a personal bodyguard, Nicolas Pacheco, who is young, well-trained and has a crush on Barbara. But everything will change when he meets Juan Manuel’s daughter Tatiana.

Nevertheless, Paz’s husband’s bodyguard, Tango, has not given up on trying to kidnap the beer baroness, who has the dual challenge of uncovering her enemy and winning over the heart of her bodyguard.

Cast also includes Adriana Louvier, Andres Palacios, Nicolas Paola Nuñez, Fernando Sarfatti , Ramiro Huerta and Sergio Kleiner
