Manuela "Pipa" Pelari (played by Luisana Lopilato) is a protagonist in Recurrence.
Manuela, known as Pipa, lives alone in La Quebrada and becomes the central investigator of the suspicious death and related conspiracy. A former violent-crimes officer, she is attacked at home, questions police statements, protects her family, and confronts guilt over failing to protect a childhood friend. Rufino Jerez (played by Mauricio Paniagua) appears in Recurrence.
Rufino oversees the official inquiry into the young woman’s death while facing hostility from local authorities and pressure to preserve the established order. His investigation intersects with Manuela’s search for the truth, as the case increasingly exposes police misconduct and an organized cover-up. Etelvina Carreras (played by Inés Estévez) appears in Recurrence.
Etelvina is a member of the powerful Carreras family who recovers a necklace that once belonged to her mother and had been given to Mecha. The necklace later appears on the young victim, linking Etelvina’s family history to the suspicious death and the investigation surrounding Manuela. Garcia (played by Daniel Cabot) appears in Recurrence.
Garcia is a police officer dismissed after a brutal operation against a suspect. His removal occurs as the authorities’ cover-up becomes clearer, placing him within the abusive police response that Manuela examines while seeking to understand the death and the broader conspiracy. Cruz Carreras (played by Aquiles Casabella) appears in Recurrence.
Cruz, a member of the Carreras family, was romantically involved with the young victim and gave her the necklace during the party. Photographs place him near the scene, making him politically useful as a suspect, although he admits the relationship and denies harming her, with no conclusive proof against him. Tobias Pelari (played by Benjamín Del Cerro) appears in Recurrence.
Tobias is Manuela’s family member and becomes central to the final revelation. After a cougar hunt, he returns in panic and explains that his mother’s gun accidentally went off, causing a policeman to fall. He also kept the victim’s phone after finding it outside the yard, making both him and the phone targets of the police search.
