Premise

#Luimelia is a spin-off of the period serial drama Amar es para siempre. It rescues two iconic characters, the lesbian couple formed by Luisita and Amelia, and transfers them forward from the late 1970s to current day, while being played by the same actresses. The project was driven by the strong momentum of fandom's shipping behind the two characters in the period drama series.
