Chiquititas is a children's musical Argentine soap opera, created and produced by Cris Morena. It starred Morena's daughter Romina Yan and Agustina Cherri. The soap opera focuses on a group of orphans living in a manor known as Rincón de Luz. Their lives are gradually touched and changed by Belén, a tender-hearted, dedicated young woman. The story explores their experiences and coming-of-age dramas such as discovering first love, deceptions, sadness, loneliness, and friendship, as they form a family together. In the fifth season the show was rebooted with a new setting, new characters, and a new story. The soap opera is complemented with musical themes and videos. Chiquititas spawned two spin-offs, Rincón de Luz, which aired in 2003 on Canal 9, and a 2006 production, Chiquititas Sin Fin, which aired on Telefe. Sin Fin, created to celebrate the series' 11th anniversary, later had versions in Portugal and Romania. A game based on Sin Fin was also released for PS2 and Wii in 2009.
