Wiki.
Mujer, Casos de la Vida Real (translated: Woman, Real Life Cases) is an anthology telenovela produced by Mexican television network Televisa for Canal de las Estrellas. Developed as a response to the Mexican earthquake of 1985, the program initially consisted of reenactments of real-life situations, or "cases", related to the earthquake's impact, with the intent of generating assistance for victims. Due to its popularity, Televisa eventually expanded the topics of the stories the series depicted beyond those related to the earthquake. The series was produced and hosted by Mexican actress and politician Silvia Pinal.In its first few seasons, the show presented generally lighthearted themes, such as love stories and lost loves; during the 1980s, topics such as domestic violence had still not been acknowledged by Mexican society. In the 1990s, themes became darker in tone, including cases of rape, incest, child abuse, prostitution, LGBT discrimination and domestic violence. The show became a stage for social reform in Mexico. With these changes, the show was usually first in line to discuss topics that were often kept out of the public eye.
Although Mujer, Casos de la Vida Real underwent several metamorphoses in the 2000s, and a spin-off show developed, the show stopped producing episodes in 2007, and in 2009 Pinal confirmed its cancellation.
