Golpe al corazón

Golpe al corazón (English: Strike to the Heart) is a 2017 Argentine telenovela produced and broadcast by Telefe from September 11, 2017, to March 2, 2018.

Plot

Rafa Farías (Sebastián Estevanez) was a boxer, and his pregnant wife died in a car crash. Reasoning that his wife died because the ambulance did not arrive to the site in time, he ends his boxing career and becomes a nurse instead. He consented with the removal of his late wife's eyes for organ donation. Those benefited Marcela Ríos (Eleonora Wexler), who had become blind during a street attack. In present day, both of them work at the same clinic. She is married to Javier Mansilla (Ramiro Blas), who had caused the crash by falling a sleep while driving, and then escaped without helping the crash victim.

Production

The filming of the telenovela started in July. It was meant as a telenovela for the prime time, meant to compete with Las Estrellas from El Trece. It is produced by Quique Estevanez. The airing time became controversial, as Telefe had already aired the telenovela Fanny la fan in the prime time, and cancelled it after a week because of its poor ratings. The production announced the first airing date, September 11, during a press conference at Puerto Madero.

Sabrina Rojas, a model who became famous in Showmatch, made her initial work as an actress in this telenovela.

Actress Manuela Pal plays the villain, and complained about the hot scenes shot in the telenovela.
