Plot
In a luxurious and sophisticated environment, Isabel and Augusto play seduction games without any commitment. Rich, elegant and amoral, they involve other people in their pleasure games to prove they are not as influenced or disposable as the others. They also compete to see who is the most successful in the art of seduction. Until an unexpected element unsettles their partnership: from the height of their arrogance, neither can imagine that love will irreversibly affect both of them.

Production
The refinement and glamour of the story are reflected in the images of the miniseries, which was entirely shot and post-produced in 4K. In addition to contributing to the audience's experience, UHD allows productions to take great artistic leaps, getting much closer to what you currently see in the movies. The luxury environment is reflected also in the grandeur of the sets and locations of the plot, which was shot in Rio de Janeiro, Argentina, and Uruguay. Nearly 30 staff members, ten actors, and more than 600 kilograms of luggage and equipment landed in Puerto Madryn, Patagonia. The team also shot in Santa Candida Palace, in Concepción del Uruguay. Founded in 1847, the construction by Italian architect Pedro Fossati is considered a national historic monument. In the plot, the palace belongs to the aunt of bon vivant Augusto de Valmont.
