Learn more about Malinche! We actually know very little about the historical figure, but there are plenty of fictional narratives about her. - Watch 'Malinche', a 2018 series by Canal Once. - Watch 'Hernán', a 2019 series by Canal Once. - Read the novel 'Malinche', by Laura Esquivel. - Listen to the song 'Malinche', sung by Amparo Ochoa.
