La notte che non passerà

For me this is hands down that best Brazilian series ever made. The Kiss Night Club fire was the second largest tragedy of this kind to ever take place in Brazil with 242 death and over 600 seriously wounded. Today, at its 10th anniversary, Brazilian families and society are still waiting for a fair trial.

Speaking about this production, quite frankly I wasn't expecting much, but boy oh boy the writing, production, dialogs, and actors put on an amazing and touching performances that will make you feel like you were there.

Things move very slowly in the Brazilian justice system, and to be honest I was already forgetting about the whole thing. Anyway, I truly recommend everyone watch this. You will not regret it.

This is SO CRAZY. In 2015, in Romania, a club named Colectiv had a very big fire in which died almost 100 people. One of the biggest tragedies in Romania. And the crazy part is, everything was exactly as in this documentary. Some rock band sing, one of the members shows the singer that the ceiling is on fire, then the masacre started. And in 2020, director Alexander Nanau released a documentary called Collectiv, which was Oscar nominee at 2 categories. You can search on the internet Collectiv tragedy Romania. I think you will still find the original footages somehow. That's so crazy!! It's like they copied the exact case, but the thing is... both of them are real.

I noticed reviews from Brazalian people who watched this tragedy unfold in real time - for some of those people I understand the series will have a different effect and may not live up to the reality of the tragedy.

I wanted to provide a review from someone who didn't even have this tragic event on their radar until this series. People forget that not everyone knows about these tragedies and for a huge platform like netflix to release something like this, they are opening the eyes of so many people.

All of the actors performed very well. The scenes of the incident and everything that unfolded, for me were very well done and traumatic. I was screaming at my TV with the reveal of each detail of corruption following the investigation.

My only criticism of the series would be that some of the music is a little repetitive / overdone at times - not that this changed the fact that I was sobbing.

It broke my heart because the same thing happened in Bucharest, just two years later. Same outdoor pyrotechnics, same foam ceilling, only one exit, and an impossible long wait for justice in a country that is so devoid of it. I don't think everything has to be perfect to be deeply moved by a tragedy that shouldn't have happened. To me the acting was great, I felt each of one of those parents pain, even though I am sure that the pain the real parents endured is incomprehensible. A tragedy like this goes well beyond the victims and their family and friends, it ripples through society, even if society is moving so painfully slowly.

Is it one the best series that I have seen? Certainly not! But it moved me deeply and that is something. After all, art should tell the truth.

Just watch! 10/10.
