Synopsis "Revoltosas, Las (in Spanish)"
Nuestra historia esta llena de mitos, lo cual no es sinonimo de mentiras. Los mitos conforman, en gran parte, el alma de un pueblo. Sus creencias y suenos. Son las respuestas a sus deseos y el consuelo para los miedos. No es posible decir que el pasaje de los ninos heroes o el del Pipila, por ejemplo, son un completo embuste. No hay certeza de la existencia historica de Robin Hood y, sin embargo, sus hazanas continuan siendo famosas y las generaciones veneran su memoria. Por que, entonces, echar a perder leyendas tan sabrosas como la de la Malinche, la G?era Rodriguez o La Carambada? Mujeres bravas y desconfiadas que hicieron lo que les dio su gana y se volvieron, a fuerza de imaginacion, heroinas populares, guapas y revoltosas. Si Chucho el roto y el Tigre de Santa Julia tiene su nicho en nuestro pasado, las mujeres de estos cuentos merecen mas que un rinconcito: jugosas fantasias. Los heroes populares de nuestro tiempo son narcotraficantes y se les dedican corridos, libros e incluso misas. En la historia de nuestro pais, aun en pleno apogeo del bandolerismo, varias mujeres lograron colarse. En medio de todo el desorden que se agolpa a traves de siglos, mas de un nombre femenino llega hasta nosotros. De los hechos que aqui se narran no lo crean todo o, mejor dicho, crean lo que a ustedes convenga, pues para eso se hicieron los cuentos. / Our history is full of myths, which is not synonymous with lies. Myths make up, to a large extent, the soul of a people. Your beliefs and dreams. They are the answers to your wishes and the consolation for fears. It is not possible to say that the passage of heroic children or that of the Pípila, for example, is a complete lie. There is no certainty of the historical existence of Robin Hood and, nevertheless, his exploits continue being famous and the generations venerate his memory. Why, then, spoil legends as tasty as Malinche, G? Era Rodríguez or La Carambada? Brave and distrustful women who did what they wanted and became, by force of imagination, popular heroines, beautiful and unruly. If Chucho el roto and Tigre de Santa Julia have their niche in our past, the women in these stories deserve more than a corner: juicy fantasies. The popular heroes of our time are drug traffickers and they are dedicated to corridos, books and even masses. In the history of our country, still in the height of banditry, several women managed to sneak in. In the midst of all the disorder that crowds through centuries, more than one feminine name reaches us. Of the facts that are narrated here do not believe everything or, rather, create what suits you, because that's what the stories were made for.
