The Father-in-Law of My Boyfriend
Alonso wants to rebuild his life, but he must learn to live with a daughter who has not overcome the death of her mother, a former father-in-law stuck in the past, and a new partner who is uncertain about their future together, while the unexpected arrival of a baby threatens to throw everything further into chaos.

Synopsis
Alonso, a 40-year-old widower and owner of a restaurant called El Bondi, is trying to rebuild his life amid uncertainty, while Bolivia faces a fuel crisis that affects his stability and daily routine. He wants to start over with María Florencia, an independent 27-year-old woman who is skeptical of marriage and even more reluctant to live with Gilberto, the stubborn father of Alonso’s late wife, who still lives in his home.
Gilberto, a strong-willed and outspoken man, has found in his 13-year-old granddaughter Tamara the perfect ally to challenge any attempt by Alonso to impose authority. Tamara, who has not yet overcome the death of her mother, is going through a difficult adolescence.
When María Florencia becomes pregnant, the fragile household begins to unravel, exposing the cracks within a family on the verge of exploding. Between domestic tensions, external crises, and the chaos of a life that never quite falls into place, this unusual family will have to learn how to live together — or at least try — before the new family member arrives in the middle of the disorder.
