Arroz y tartana (transl. Rice and cart) is a Spanish prime-time television miniseries based on the 1894 novel of the same name by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez. Produced by Intercartel for Televisión Española (TVE) and Generalitat Valenciana, it was directed by José Antonio Escrivá, with screenplay by Horacio Valcárcel. Its two episodes adapting the novel were broadcast on La Primera of Televisión Española on 19 November 2003.

Plot

In Valencia around 1900, Doña Manuela de Fora, widow twice, lives with the obsession of marrying the two daughters from her second marriage, Concha and Amparo. She is really bankrupt because of her habit of spending money to pretend that she still has the position she once had. She despises the son of her first marriage, Juanito, because he wants to be a merchant like his father and because he is in love with a humble seamstress.

Production

The miniseries was produced by Intercartel for Televisión Española (TVE) and was partially financed by the Generalitat Valenciana. It was filmed in forty days in Valencia and Xàtiva with a budget of €2.4 million.[1]

The two episodes premiered on La Primera of Televisión Española on 19 November 2003, and had an audience of 4,456,000 viewers in average, which represented a 31.5% share.[1]
