A man willing to commit any crime to save his wife’s life; a woman murdered to steal his heart; an organ trafficking gang connected to the upper echelons of power and another woman with a foreign heart, who sees her life crumble in her tireless search to find out who her donor is. This is the synopsis of ‘Pálpito’, a novel that Netflix premieres this April 20. It consists of 14 chapters and is carried out by Colombians Ana Lucia Dominguez (Camila) and Sebastián Martínez (Zacarías) and the Argentine Michel Brown (Simón), who spoke with La República via Zoom.
Advertising says it’s a story of love and revenge, but it promises to be more than that.
Ana Lucía: It is well written. It’s going to hook people. She has wonderful characters and is well told. It touches on a fairly complex issue such as organ trafficking. It will be shocking because this problem has never been addressed in such depth.

Sebastián: It is a novel that has many elements and I think that as human beings it connects us. There is the pretext of organ trafficking based on a fiction, but just that, the pretext to talk about the heart as an organ, which is the protagonist of the story. And how can there be three characters willing to do anything for love, willing because I believe that love is the engine that unites us all as humanity.
Michel Brown: It talks about whether love for a family member, friend or, in this case, for your partner justifies the means to do what Sebas’s character does in this case. It talks about putting ourselves in the shoes of the other, when you have to act from within, when perhaps the life of a loved one is going away and how this modifies the history of a family that, without having anything to do with it, ends up suffering the acts of another. character. But, beyond that, I think that the three of us agree on something and that the interesting thing about the novel is that for the first time, after a long time, does not focus on a single genre in particular, but on how life itself jumps into many genres like love, passion, terror. The life of human beings is changing and this is what ‘Pálpito’ talks about a bit.
Brown, known on the continent for playing Franco Reyes in the telenovela ‘Pasión de gavilanes’ and who now plays the role of the victim’s husband, points out that when they gave him the script he fell in love with it. “I couldn’t stop, it seems to me that the dramatic arc of the novel is impeccable. I came from making characters on the edge and bordering on madness, with a very aggressive tone, and I wanted to meet a dad, a guy who suffers from what happens to the character, a sensitive guy who contacts emotions ” .

For Martínez, who has participated in ‘La viuda de la mafia’ and ‘Rosario Tijeras’, his character put him in an uncomfortable place, but at the same time privileged. “Because sometimes in your career you are comfortable with the character, but you also know that you don’t have a text that helps you a lot, a director that helps you a lot, a team of colleagues that helps you a lot, and in this case it was simply the discomfort of not knowing certain things about the character and approaching a different way of seeing life, but very calm because we were well supported in every way”.
Finally, Ana Lucía, remembered for playing Ruth Uribe in the telenovela ‘Pasión de gavilanes’, agrees that she was shocked when reading the script. “When I read the first chapter, it has strong scenes, but when we recorded them, what happened was something so beautiful. I think no one can miss this premiere.”
