SYNOPSIS Born in Madrid, of humble origins, self-taught, Gloria Fuertes developed her literary vocation, her values and identities, her search for peace, the natural environment and diversity, throughout her daily life and her work. Her television impact from the '70s and '80s made her a very popular character, which masked her career until it almost became blurred. The documentary provides numerous testimonies and documents and offers content that offers an unknown profile of the author.
