Alba

This could easily be 1 movie instead of 13 episodes show. They added too much drama on top of the leading story.

I also don't understand why Mercedes was obviously the same age as her father in law. That was very distracting. It seemed to me that she was a telenovella actress who by accident appeared in this show.

Fatmagul was a 10 and exceptional series the whole cast the script the narrative the rythm all elements that made it socially relevant. Alba on the contrary It is an average product that we may easily forget.

This was an intense drama about a brutal rape. It shows how it not only affects the victim but also her family, friends and even the community. It was dragged out too long I think. I definitely feel like the story probably could have been condensed into around 6 episodes.

I have to point out the good first. Amazing views and scenery so much so that I want to up sticks and move to Spain and live in one of those fabulous houses.

Acting from lead female was really good and most of the other characters although I just could NOT get on with the lead's brother, so out of place. I was unsure whether he had learning difficulties or he was an idiotic hot head. His acting was so bad, I could not work it out!

Now for the not so good.... This show could have been wrapped up in one hour 30 mins. It was an interesting storyline but after episode 3 (of 13) I felt like the life had been drained out of it and I just wanted it over. To endure 10 more episodes was so frustrating that I fast forwarded all episodes from there!!!

Good storyline but so looooooong!!

A good series about the violent gang rape of a medium class town woman by the sons of the siblings of the richest family. Shows a lot of indirect implications in terms of power, money, corruption, cover up and this makes it worth to watch. Some of the cast participated in other Spanish good series too. It starts a bit slow but then it gets engaging. Settings and imagery are great, a beautiful quaint Spanish seaside town with sandy beaches and pristine waters.
