What's left behind the scenes

Prior to this project, Mexican soap operas were popular only in Spanish-speaking countries. The release of this particular series opened up markets in many foreign countries for Mexican cinema productions.
Until December 1991, 'The Rich Also Cry' was one of the few 'Western' projects shown on Russian television that won universal love. The success of the series was so overwhelming that the BBC produced a special report on it.
