Plot Synopsis

Shot in Mexico City and based on an original idea by renowned writer and director Daniel Burman, CECILIA tells the story of Cecilia, a creative, charismatic and daring woman who has transformed her parents' bakery into a successful business through her talent and hard work. However, Cecilia's fears and conflicts have led to a family dynamic highly dependent on her, where love has been replaced by need. Cecilia's world seems to fall apart after her stressors cause her to suffer a stroke. What at first seems like a tragedy ends up being an opportunity for Cecilia to create an environment for those around her to develop the skills and resources they need to be self-reliant. CECILIA made its U.S. debut on Thursday, April 14, 2022, as Paramount+ released all eight episodes.
