Amigas y Rivales

Amigas y rivales tells the story of four 21 year old women that come from different social backgrounds. The first one of them, Laura, is a studious, sensitive and serious girl from a middle class family; she studies data processing in a private university because she received a scholarship.

Jimena is the typical rich girl, dissipated and irresponsible, for whom sex is only another way to be entertained. Jimena is later kidnapped, although she does not realize it, she lives with Sebastian, a drug dealer who gives her drugs in change for her having sex with men in his home. Her freinds later find her and she is admitted into Horozonte Nuevo, a rehababilitation center.

Ofelia is the Jimena's best friend. Like Jimena, she is rich and carries a way of life of diversion and frivolous pleasures. It's not until Ofelia gets infected with HIV that she and Jimena learn not to get involved with "any guy." Ofelia ends up getting married to Ulises (Feo) who wants to marry her dispite her surcumstances. He is extremely ugly and everyone makes fun of him, until when Ofelia is shot and she thinks she will die she sends him to get acne treatments, plastic surgery, and excersize so that he will be attractive to other women after her death. She doesnt die though, and some of her best friends are after Ulises as well as many other teenage girls!
