00:01Berta Ríos entered this clinic
00:02diagnosed with a catatonic schizophrenia
00:04that kept her in total mutism.
00:08Don't let her burn, Leon!
00:09Get back!
00:10Berta!
00:12I think Berta Ríos escaped by her own will.
00:14Berta Ríos' mind is very fragile.
00:16Berta!
00:17Any new situation can put her in danger.
00:21I'm Eva Cortés.
00:23I'm here for the domestic worker's job.
00:25They gave me a character,
00:26a complex,
00:27so full of subtleties.
00:29I always say that it's like
00:31if an actor was put in an amusement park.
00:35It's really a rise and fall,
00:38unexpected curves,
00:41it's full of emotions,
00:42very demanding on an actor's level.
00:44For me,
00:45you'll see as the story goes on
00:47how that character gets,
00:48and how
00:50the story gets complex,
00:51and how she really starts to
00:55open up like a fan,
00:56and we start to see who she really is.
00:59And...
01:01Create all those layers,
01:02and make the game
01:03of taking the viewer
01:05through all that path,
01:06to believe certain things,
01:07and then reveal who we really are.
01:10It was very fun,
01:11it was very demanding.
01:13Understanding the handling
01:16of this woman's mind,
01:18how she sees life,
01:19it was very complex,
01:20very beautiful.
01:21I learned a lot about mental health.
01:24I learned a lot about the functioning of the human brain.
01:28I had very interesting conversations
01:32about all the disorders,
01:34the behavior.
01:36It was really, I tell you Moisés,
01:38a gift in every way.
01:40Being able to do something on television,
01:41also not very commercial,
01:43sometimes people say
01:45this is not very common,
01:47to see something like this.
01:47Well, yes, it's not very common,
01:49it's different,
01:49but the audience is eager to see different things.
01:52Dark forces
01:54hate to see you.
01:56Why don't you want to talk about your past?
01:58I thought we were going to talk about our private life.
02:00What do you think?
02:00That I can be fooled
02:01like your other bosses?
02:03The substitute is a permanent game
02:05between the viewer and the actor.
02:07I'm telling you that this story goes this way,
02:10but I'm giving you other clues
02:12that make you doubt.
02:13And then you realize
02:14that the path wasn't that one.
02:16And you start looking for the why,
02:18looking for the keys,
02:19trying to unravel who is who.
02:23And this is like looking for clues.
02:26It's like those games that propose to you
02:28to see if you understood
02:30and open the door that is.
02:32It may be that yes,
02:32it may be that from the beginning
02:34you saw something in the wardrobe
02:36or in the art that was put there
02:38that maybe another person didn't see.
02:40And then you already know what's going to happen.
02:42But there is another one
02:43who did not realize that detail
02:44and surprises him.
02:46It really is full of clues,
02:48full of keys,
02:48full of things that they will understand
02:51as the story goes on.
02:54It's very well woven
02:56and we were all very meticulous
02:58from each department
02:59so as not to damage that, right?
03:02To be able to weave that path
03:03in a way that the viewer can play,
03:05feel that he understood,
03:06suddenly understand something else,
03:08that everything takes a turn
03:10and you realize that it starts to make sense
03:12everything you've seen before
03:13and you yourself start making your deductions.
03:16It's very fun
03:17because it's a permanent game
03:18between the viewer and us.
03:20Everything counts, right?
03:21Photography is a character,
03:23the wardrobe is a character,
03:25art is a character,
03:27every detail of makeup,
03:28every little thing says something
03:30that makes sense in the end.
03:31We read it
03:32and we were also surprised.
03:34I really thought
03:35if it's making such a strong impact for me
03:37to read it,
03:38how will it be to see it?
03:41If I already know everything that happens
03:43and if I'm already in this universe
03:45and I know where it's going,
03:46how will the viewer be
03:47when he's there for the first time
03:48on the screen?
03:49It's very exciting.
03:50We allowed ourselves to do
03:51a lot of very interesting things,
03:53little games
03:54to get the viewer's attention
03:56in a special way,
03:59at certain points,
04:00and then distract him
04:01and then take him to think about something else
04:03and then play again
04:04and take him to the character's line.
04:07It's really very nice
04:09to see how the suspense is woven
04:11in this series
04:12because it's very well done,
04:15both in writing
04:16and in the realization,
04:17as in the performances of my colleagues.
04:19And I think that's what happens
04:20with the viewer.
04:21All the comments we've had
04:22are,
04:23my God,
04:23I sat down to watch two episodes
04:25and I'm already in the 50th,
04:26I've already finished it.
04:28And you never know what's coming,
04:30which is very, very interesting.
04:31It's not predictable.
04:33It's been one of the biggest challenges.
04:35This character,
04:36as the story goes on,
04:37you realize why.
04:40A construction
04:41of a character
04:42that actually
04:43there are
04:44four or five.
04:46I...
04:47I set myself a challenge
04:49as an actress
04:50to approach the character
04:51in a way
04:51that I had never done before.
04:52I set myself the challenge
04:54of being permanently
04:55in dissociation.
04:56That is,
04:57everything I was thinking
05:00I wrote it
05:01on the left side of the notebook.
05:03But what I was thinking
05:05permanently in the scenes
05:06was dissociated
05:08from what I was doing
05:09and saying.
05:11So I was permanently
05:12building the lines
05:13of what I think,
05:14what I do
05:15and what I say.
05:16And they have no relationship
05:18with each other.
05:19It's almost as if
05:20it were permanently
05:21two characters in one
05:22or three characters in one.
05:24And I think that exercise,
05:25which was very complex
05:26for me in the first month,
05:27ended with a headache.
05:29And for me it was super complex
05:30the permanent dissociation.
05:35It was a great learning experience
05:36for me as an actress.
05:37It was very interesting
05:38in the work.
05:39And one of the biggest challenges
05:41that I have set myself
05:42in my career.
05:44And...
05:45to get to such dark places
05:48of the environment,
05:49of the complexity,
05:50of the functioning
05:52of the human brain.
05:54Also, for me,
05:55it was a very big challenge
05:56to understand it
05:57and carry it out.
05:58We used to say with Geraldine
06:00all the time,
06:00who plays Victoria's character,
06:02there is not a single easy scene,
06:03my God,
06:04a normal scene
06:05of a phone call.
06:06There is none.
06:10It is very demanding.
06:12And I had to make many changes
06:14and be very well accompanied.
06:17With the psychiatrists
06:18with whom I talked
06:19about the creation of the character,
06:20I also talked a lot about this.
06:21Because, obviously,
06:24if you are under this energy
06:26all day long
06:27and you are doing this kind of scenes
06:28all day long,
06:29your body understands
06:30that you are bad,
06:31or that you are in danger
06:32and you generate more cortisol
06:33than normal.
06:34And all this you have to
06:35start giving your body
06:37well-being,
06:38do the things
06:39that your body requires
06:40to level up
06:41and have a balance
06:42and take care of you as an actress.
06:43But at the same time
06:44I had to be very committed
06:45to the process.
06:46So, well,
06:47during that time
06:48I did not live in my house.
06:49I decided to go to a studio
06:50near where I recorded
06:51to be able to rest
06:52a little more.
06:55Every time I arrived
06:56to my house
06:57I did a whole ritual.
06:58Every time I went to sleep
06:59I did a whole ritual
07:00to really let go
07:01of all that,
07:02all that tension
07:03of all day.
07:04I bathed with salt,
07:05I stretched,
07:06I meditated.
07:08Before eating
07:09I also waited
07:10for all my emotions
07:11to go down
07:13so as not to eat
07:14with all that there.
07:16It seemed to me
07:17super important
07:18to really disconnect
07:19before going
07:20to my daily life
07:21and start studying again
07:22because it is easy
07:23not to realize
07:24and remain
07:25with the same energy
07:26day after day
07:27and well,
07:28it is not something
07:29that is bearable.
07:32Yes,
07:33I also had a little room
07:34that when I felt
07:35very tired
07:36I put it on my navel
07:37with a tape
07:38while I did
07:39very complex scenes
07:40of the character
07:41or scenes
07:42that had a lot of darkness
07:43or that had
07:44very strong
07:45or very complex emotions.
07:46It protected me
07:47with certain things.
07:49I'm not going to throw it away.
07:50You're going to give up
07:51when I can't take it anymore.
07:52Let's see
07:53who is the last
07:54witch to kill.
