Inspired by true stories, but nevertheless pure fiction, THE FRANCO SISTERS follows two Puerto Rican sisters who choose radically opposing paths in life. Their story combines complex cultural relationships, a world of intrigue, violence and love, taking place in El Salvador, Washington DC, Cuba and Puerto Rico. While Cristina works for the US government and becomes a spy for Castro, social-worker Elena eventually works for the FBI. The real tale is taught to today's intelligence community as a cautionary.
