(CNN Spanish) -

«The girl who cleans» is the new HBO series and tells the story of Rosa (Damayanti Quintanar), a single mother with two jobs who is willing to stain her hands with blood to save her son's life .

This is the central plot of the series based on the original Argentine story that premiered in 2017.

«When Rosa cleans her first crime scene, she does it to save herself.

After they start calling her to clean others, she realizes that there is the possibility of getting something out of it, not because of an ambition but because of a need, ”says Quintanar.

Cleaning and music

The music for each episode of "The Girl Who Cleans Up" is one more character.

Every time Rosa (Damayanti Quintanar) has to clean a place where a crime was committed, she takes her hearing aids, puts them on and concentrates to do her job in the best way.

For Damayanti, this is a ritual.

«It is Rosa's ritual.

For those of us who are a bit obsessed with cleanliness and order, it becomes a ritual of tranquility, "he says.

“What makes you dirty and cluttered is anxiety, but once you clean it, it gives you peace and it becomes something she enjoys.

Music, without a doubt, is something that connects Rosa and allows her to enter a universe that she inhabits with her thoughts doing something she likes, “adds the actress.

Damayanti Quintanar: «I have a bit of Rosa»

What was it like playing the character of a woman who is in charge of cleaning murder scenes?

Damayanti says that, to do so, she studied people with compulsive disorders.

“I studied a lot when one develops these obsessive compulsive disorders and where they come from.

I saw a lot of videos of people who are compulsive about cleaning, "he says.

And he adds: «I know how to clean and that is something very important.

In one scene I told them that I would clean in a certain way.

When I was a child, there was no one to help us, and we cleaned the house between my mother, my sister and me.

So I have a bit of Rosa in terms of cleanliness and order.
