The show was filmed in Córdoba, Argentina, and stars Antonella Costa as the titular cleaning lady, Rosa.[9]
Single mother Rosa, a cleaning lady, is obsessive about her cleaning method, due to her 7-year-old son Felipe having an immunodeficiency disorder and needing to live in a sterile bubble. Her cleaning method comes to the attention of some of the ruthless gangsters in the city, who start using her as crime cleanup. She uses the large renumeration of her criminal cleaning jobs to help pay for her son's expensive medical treatments, which also puts her family's safety at risk.[9] The series shows sexual exploitation, drug trafficking, sex trafficking, people trafficking, and does not show the protagonist always choosing the right side.[9][10]
