Calamar (1989-1991)

Caracol Television's telenovela is a fantasy blend of adventure and magical realism. Set in the imaginary town of Consolación de Chiriguay near the Calavera Desert, it follows characters with dual identities, battling for the love of Claramanta and seek the three parts of a medallion that holds the key to a vast treasure. Notably, the telenovela features the mechanical doll "Guri Guri," portrayed as a wise and endearing disciple of Tibetan monks, akin to a Creole version of Yoda. Notable actors like Carlos Muñoz, Margarita Rosa de Francisco, Armando Gutiérrez, Judy Henríquez, Teresa Gutiérrez, and Humberto Dorado are part of this memorable story.
