What is the soap opera’s story?

“Papel Principal” dives deep into the intriguing world of revue theater, revealing the secrets and challenges faced by artists as they seek glory on stage. At the heart of this story is Aurora Guerra, a renowned actress who gained fame from a young age thanks to the popular series “Os Eleitos.” However, behind her determination and sense of humor lies a woman manipulated by her mother, Irene Guerra, who secretly harbors envy of her daughter’s success.

Aurora and Lúcia Rocha, a talented young woman raised in very different circumstances, had their destinies intertwined from the beginning. Aurora’s mother used her connections to secure the lead role in the series for her daughter, leaving Lúcia with deep resentment and physical scars after a traumatic incident.
