Lena – Liebe meines Lebens

It is an adaption of the Argentine telenovela Don Juan y Su Bella Dama, created by Claudio Villarruel and Bernarda Llorente.

Lena helps the ageing Countess, who is quite confused at being nearly run over, back to her home, where she meets Amelie's grandson David.

In this climate, the ZDF channel partnered with Endemol to adapt the Argentine telenovela Don Juan y Su Bella Dama.

[3] Producer Quirin Berg observed that these changes needed to be made especially because the original was a primetime format in which social violence played a large part.

There was also the need to adapt certain socio-political and socio-economic aspects of the original to reflect the standards of realism in art and film both in Germany and the rest of western Europe.

In all three countries Lena - Liebe meines Lebens took over the time slot of an earlier telenovela Hanna - Folge denim Herzen .
