La Coca

















For those of you who don't know her, Isabel Sarli, nicknamed La Coca, is a retired Argentine actress, model and a sex-symbol of the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s.

Sarli was discovered by filmmaker Armando Bo after she became Miss Argentina in 1955 (who she married) and became the star of his films, starting with El Trueno entre las hojas in 1956. She became an international Latin American star, filming in Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay, Mexico, Panama and Venezuela, and films like Fuego (1969 film) and Fiebre (1970) reached the American and European markets.

The new campaign of the drink Fernet 1882 at the Flower Park (Plaza de la Flor) displays 1,882 images of the sex symbol.
