They say that anyone in the world is connected to another through a chain of no more than six acquaintances. It's called the "Six Degree Theory." Seen like this, no one seems unapproachable. This is precisely what Antonio Díaz thought, ‘El Mago Pop’, the great national signing of Discovery MAX that public opinion has already dubbed ‘El Dynamo español’. In 'El Mago Pop', Antonio Díaz will take his magic to the streets and will connect with several well-known faces on the national and international scene that will serve as intermediate steps to reach his final goal. With Discovery MAX cameras as a witness and magic as a bargaining chip, ‘El Mago Pop’ will weave a chain of contacts in which each of the five links will bring him a little closer to his idol. Who is ‘The Pop Magician’? There is no tux, no top hats. Just a young wizard with overwhelming talent. At 28 years old, Antonio Díaz has been passionate about magic since, when he was four years old, a coin was pulled from his ear.

Amor de madre poster

The love that a mother feels justifies everything, a mother is capable of murder because of her child, she kills, she steals, she works the corner or any other thing that keeps her child alive; the love that a mother feels, brings up the better and the worst in every woman. Ursula (Ana Polvorosa) is a mother and she is living two tragedies at the same time, a zombie invasion and the fact that her husband left home with their son, Nicolas. To Ursula, the zombie invasion is just “an anecdote” because she, as a mother and as a woman, only cares about her missing child, helpless and alone in a world surrounded by green and crazy beings.
