3 Double Discs - More Than 10 Hours!
Features: DVD, English, Subtitled, Spanish
Lety is a sweet, shy, romantic girl who is very intelligent, though not what you'd call "attractive." Graduating with honors in economics, and having a master's degree in finance, she confidently sets out to find a job, never once considering her appearance to be an obstacle to success. But she soon discovers that her skills and education are not enough as she is rejected over and over for her plain looks. She finally accepts a secretarial position at a major production company run by the founder's dashing but womanizing son, Fernando. As the company's fortunes dwindle and future prospects dim, Lety comes to the rescue, proving how valuable she really is - and falling in love in the process! Can Lety stand up to the beautiful, catty office gossips and win not just Fernando's gratitude, but his love as well? And what happens when an unexpected twist of fate turns this "ugly duckling" into a lovely swan? That's what makes this novela one beauty of a story.
Editor's Note
The premise here will seem familiar to fans of ABC's UGLY BETTY, which premiered to American audiences after this Mexican telenovela had already earned a huge following. When Lety, an intelligent young woman with good grades and a professional attitude, is rejected from a string of job prospects, she starts to consider whether her frumpy appearance is what's keeping her back. After lucking into a secretarial post at a slick film production company, her looks come under increased scrutiny in what seems like a foreign world of intimidating power and glamour.
