Romané is a Chilean soap opera[1] that was first aired in March 6, 2000 as part of the first semester prime-time lineup of soap operas on TVN. It competed against Canal 13’s Sabor A Ti.[2]

Plot

The last time Jovanka Antich (Claudia di Girólamo) was in Chile, she was a teenager and had a secret, torrid affair with Raphael Dominguez (Francisco Melo) the son of a local well-to-do family. The affair ended badly, with both of them believing that the other betrayed them when really it was Raphael’s mother Victoria North (Marés González) with the help of the power hungry gypsy Drago (José Soza) who tricked the young lovers into hating each other and separating.

The day they had planned to runaway together Raphael doesn’t show and Jovanka leaves Mejillones alone never to tell him she is pregnant. She ends up in Spain where she has a baby girl and marries a wealthy and good gypsy. They adopt two other girls, and the three of them grow up believing they all adopted.

Jovanka has now returned to Chile, with her daughters and now a widow, after 25 years to attend her father’s wedding. Her father, Melquíades (Héctor Noguera) has brought his whole tribe with him to Mejillones where he plans on marrying the young beauty Milenka California (Blanca Lewin). Jovanka finds herself once again in this town that brings back so many memories. It’s not long before Jovanka runs into Raphael again, and Victoria comes to tell her to leave. Remembering all the pain of the past, still hurt and humiliated from Raphael’s abandonment, she shouts for the whole town to hear and know that the day Raphael Dominguez dies she will share her fortune and gold with everyone in the town.

Many of the townspeople like Victoria North have an adverse hatred and prejudice towards gypsies, but the town itself is doing poorly with many businesses on the verge of bankruptcy, and the arrival of the gypsies will change all that. It’s not long before Jovanka runs into Raphael again, and Victoria afraid that she’ll be found out asks Jovanka to leave. This only provokes Jovanka to shout out for the whole town to hear and know that the day Raphael Dominguez dies she will share her fortune and gold with everyone in the town.

From here is where things get complicated. People start attempting plots against Raphael. Victoria and Drago once again plot together to get rid of Jovanka. And Drago has his own plans to get rid of his best friend Melquiades so that he can become the leader of the tribe. Jovanka meanwhile starts to fall in love with Raphael’s brother Juan (Francisco Reyes) who unlike his brother has a great affection for the gypsies. However, he happens to be a priest. And his nephew and Raphael’s son, Sebastián (Ricardo Fernández) becomes enamored with Maria Salomé (Francisca Imboden), Jovanka’s daughter, who may or may not be his sister….
