‘Limbo’ tells how Sofía Castelló, therefore for the people she trusts, sees her world change radically when her father dies.

A true party girl, but she is also a woman of character, who usually gets what she wants. From the first episode, with the death of her father, which will mark much of the start of the season, she will begin to take off layers in that great emotional armor she has of her.

Also, in “Limbo”, it is the moment when I could enjoy it the most, because in “At the end of the tunnel” and “The weasel tale”, it was the first times and it had to be a perfect Buenos Aires accent. In So’s case, fortunately, I have the license that she has lived in Madrid since she was 12, which makes her Argentine accent more refined and a little more tailored.
