Dadhá and the Xibal Village

In 1918 M rida, during the Spanish Influenza pandemic, the Sol s M dici family struggles to maintain their status in the dynamic Yucatecan society in a tragicomedy that respects neither titles nor positions.

It is a burst of color that reveals Yucatan's magic, habits, customs, traditions, legends, handicrafts, and folklore. The perfect synergy of natural wealth and biodiversity, the legends, and the mystical, unusual, and spectacular Mayan rituals. The splendor of the ceremonial centers and their mythological beings. The excellent gastronomy and the deep and exquisite smells from the peninsula's trees.

Don Chano, Candelaria, Juanr , and Trina are two married couples who live together in the same house where the delusions of grandeur of the former are mixed with the neurosis and passivity of the latter.

In the Sol s M dici house, all social classes converge and intertwine in a struggle for power and fanaticism.

The birth of Dadh , daughter of Juanra and Trina, does not go unnoticed because she is an eccentric girl determined to dress in black. Her father's obsession with her health makes her know the rain until she is 15 years old "so that she won't catch a cold."

As a child, an "inner" voice motivates her to visit the Xibalb Hacienda, where she meets a mischievous Alux and his entire family. Although no one else can see the magical beings of Xibal, it seems that the M dici and the magical beings are always in constant conflict through Dadh , who becomes best friends with little Chel.

Dadh has to resort to her innocent manipulation and all kinds of tricks to coexist with these marvelous beings going to the depths of the Mayan underworld, which is much more than anyone could imagine.
