Storyline

The meeting of a man with his image 20 years younger. This is the plot of O Clone. In the beggining of the story Lucas is a happy adolescent, romantic, full of projects, and he's in love with a young arabic girl: Jade. But life didn't run well for him: he separates with Jade and, during the twenty years that have passed during the novel, he's not the same thing physically, his projects are lost by the way, he has no more the tenderness, the romantic atmosphere, and the poetry of before. He's now dry by inside. Jade, in the other side, lived all this time imagining that her life would be much happier if she had married him. Twenty years later they meet again. Jade gets upset, trying to find, in the forty years old Lucas, what is left from the person she once fell in love with. That's when the clone appears, made by Lucas' godfather without his knowledge, the geneticist Albieri. The clone is not Lucas, but it is the image that Jade loved during her whole life. We have then, an uncommon ...

O clone, the best ever!

Hi, everybody. I am watching O clone, now, on one of our channels, and I am in love with it. It is the most beautiful soap operas I have ever seen. Great story, beautiful make up, interesting plots, good actors, a lot of mystery, and deep looks. But I watched it a couple of years ago, and I do not remember who Zein is, why on earth Jade marries him, and what impact does it have on Lucas's life? I remember he was a hansom man and he looks very deep in Jade's eyes. Oh, how beautiful she is. I also love the marrocan lifestyle, their clothing, their houses, even if in this story they showed the house of one of the best families from there. Please help me, because I am in a big dilemma.
