Popular in cinema, the theme of the twins is also exploited in the Brazilian series Secret of the Tropicana. Two sisters, like two drops of water similar in appearance and completely different inside. Their life is intrigue, the opposition of good and evil, wealth and poverty. The authors have put together all the possible cliches to create the Secret of the Tropicana.
The heroines of the series
The Secret of the Tropicana is a Brazilian series. Its content can be called commonplace. Actions take place in a small town near Rio de Janeiro. This place - a quiet paradise on earth - has turned for the heroes of the series into a real battlefield, where envy and lies reign, intrigues are woven, hearts are broken and lovers suffer.
As much passion, deception and grief as shown in the series, this quiet town has not known in its entire history. Two sisters Ruth and Rockel live here. They are the main heroines of the telenovela. Ruth is a girl with a pure soul, bright thoughts, dreaming of a great true mutual love. She gratefully accepts everything that fate sends her.
Rockel is the exact opposite of sister. He dreams of a rich, carefree life and goes to great lengths to achieve his goal. For her, there are no moral principles; she is not capable of sympathy and compassion. The only thing that she truly appreciates and loves is money.
The roles of both twin sisters were played by the same actress - Gloria Pires. However, her participation in the series was not limited to this. She owns the episodic roles of two more characters, between whom serious intrigues are also woven.
