Through her own story we will delve into her traumatic childhood, her artistic past, the loves and disappointments of her life, her loneliness, her fears and, finally, we will learn the truth about her clandestine relationship with the King. Carles Rexach, Alain Delon, Paquirri, Juan Carlos I, Ángel Cristo... Many men wanted to possess her, but none knew how to love her. And, beneath that apparent layer of a tough woman hides María García, a sensitive and fragile woman who, on several occasions, has been on the verge of falling into the abyss: mistreated by her mother; harassed at work; raped, beaten and threatened with death by her husband; evicted and ruined; target of the State sewers... Even so, and despite the bad press, she has always managed to get ahead. María García is the survivor of “Una vida Bárbara” and a reference icon with which to review the recent history of Spain.
