Nissaga de poder (English: Lineage of power) was a Catalan TV soap opera which was broadcast on TV3 from 1996 to 1998. It became one of TV3's most popular TV series. It was created by Josep Maria Benet i Jornet and adapted to TV by Jordi Arcarazo.[1]
Eulàlia and Mateu Montsolís are siblings who own a winery located in the region of Penedès, Cavas Montsolís. They are members of one of the richest families in the region.
The plot revolves around the incestuous love between Eulàlia and Mateu, which gave birth to a son, Eduard. But the Montsolís family cannot allow this to become public as the scandal would cause irreversible damage. Their official story is that Eduard is the illegitimate child of a sporadic relationship between Mateu Montsolís and one of his many lovers, Àngels Estivill. Eduard was raised by family employees Tomas and Assumpció.
The deceptions, murders, betrayals, envy and turbulent relationships between members of a powerful family in the midst of a stifling atmosphere are the plot of the series.
