“Divan Family”comedy series directed by Alejandro Ciancio with the protagonist of Carola Reyna and Boy Olmi as a couple of therapists who separate romantically but decide to stay together professionally, can be seen for the first time on TV starting tonight at 11pm on El Nueve.
The eight half-hour episodes of the series, produced by Tronito and GM Comunicación and with Ariana Saiegh as showrunner and head of the writing team, premiered on November 30 in Flow’s on-demand catalog. Now they will be broadcast two per Friday on the air channel; After the first two chapters that will be seen tonight, the broadcast will continue on January 5, 12 and 19.
What it’s about Divan Family
The plot of “Divan Family” explores the comings and goings of the married couple made up of Susi and José, who also make up a successful duo of co-therapists. The situation becomes complicated when they decide to separate as a couple but not as professionals.
During the series they will face criticism from family members and the challenges of their children’s daily lives: a teenager without a clear direction and a daughter who is looking for a donor to get pregnant. On the other hand, the stories of his patients will weave an intriguing tapestry of comedy and drama in a therapeutic environment in which psychoanalysis is mixed with alternative methods such as bioenergetics, constellations and others.
Carola Reyna and Boy Olmi couple in real life and fiction
The series was a particular challenge for Reyna and Olmi, themselves a couple who had been outside of fiction for many years. “We respect our privacy a lot, so we don’t work together all the time; On the contrary, we are very selective when we do it. But sometimes the situation calls for it, and here we really liked the challenge of starring together, sharing the journey hand in hand and taking the opportunity to grow as a couple too,” Boy told Télam in the days before the premiere on Flow.
The actor also wanted the public to see that something of their reality as a couple filtered on screen: “It was playing at things, some that happen to us and others that don’t. Yes, there is something that I hope will happen, and that is that when we look into each other’s eyes or shake hands in front of the camera, we see that there is something there that comes from real life, that there is something that connects.”
“At first we had a tremendous fear, we were terrified,” added Reyna. The first big challenge of doing it together is that it is a very exposed job, and the question is how to avoid losing the comfort that one has when working. We didn’t want anyone to have to give up those parts that one brings out when acting, or what each one needs before a scene. We are very different, that scare lasted the previous two days, but on the third day Boy was re Boy and I was re me.”
The leading duo is accompanied by a cast of figures made up of Inés Efrón, Teo D’elia, Nora Cárpena, Eleonora Wexler, Martín Seefeld, Martín Slipak, Cecilia Dopazo, Rubén Stella, Marta Lubos, Héctor Díaz, Diego Reinhold, Laura Cymer, Fabio Di Tomaso, Antonio Birabent and Alexia Moyano.
