Ni una más

No pun intended here - we do watch and experience things as ourselves ... we are supposed to have empathy. Which distinguishes us from animals ... but there is more that makes us different. Humans can be quite evil and menacing ... in a very planned way.

That all said, the show is really well crafted. It may be or feel a bit long, especially with the first twist of the show (which I think almost can be called a red herring - it does play a role later on, but not to the degree we may think when we first watch it).

Acting is top notch and the show really challenges you. What to believe? Who to believe? What are your values and what do you think happened? Even heroes are not without flaws ... without making mistakes ... some are quite costly ... but you can't blame them (her) ... if there is doubt, you do want to question, especially demeanor wise ... this really depicts greatly what teenage girls and boys go through. More the former than the latter - and it is important to see that.

This was a suggestion from Netflix to watch. Generally I don t like dubbed shows but still gave it a go as the subject intrigued me.

Story is about a young girl being raped - or wasn t she? And by who? And were there others? How thin is the line if you don t say clearly no? And what if you are so drunk / druged that you can t say no anymore?

The story line turns around the main character Alma and her friends and things they go through in high school life with social media and sexual experimentation. It has a lot of good twists and turns snd keeps you interested and guessing until the very end!

I fully enjoyed this show as a grown up snd can only recommend!

Every scene in this series is based on a cliché. The characters are caricatures, and they also present a caricature of society. The social and political commitment of the production is more important than the seriousness of the script. It is more of the same, reiterating the approach of Spanish series from the last decade, which no longer have much to offer. If the situation the series aims to denounce is common (hence the relevance of the denunciation), it would have been better to base it on a real event rather than the mediocre invention of a writer. Miguel Sáez Carral once again offers something as mediocre as 'Sin tetas no hay paraíso.' On the other hand, while trying to raise awareness about sexual abuse, it trivializes the consumption of all kinds of substances.

I was pleasantly surprised by the flawless performances of the actors and actresses in this series. It felt as if they were all close friends in real life, as I don't believe such natural chemistry could be achieved otherwise. Each character has a unique personality, and these are portrayed in a very believable and nuanced way. The story is realistic, without any clichés, pretense, or forced toughness. The atmosphere feels so authentic that it almost stands apart from anything else I've ever seen. Rarely do I come across a series that feels this genuine, where every element works seamlessly together to create a truly engaging experience. It's a refreshing piece of television that captures both the depth of its characters and the authenticity of its story, making it a standout among other series.

Initially, the series presents a captivating premise that promises to engage viewers in an exhilarating marathon. Unfortunately, after the third of its eight episodes, it devolves into a repetitive cycle of events and character clichés that undermine the entire plot.

The depiction of sexual assault (SA) and male mistreatment is heavy-handed, with every male character portrayed negatively. This leads to a sense of monotony by the fourth episode, making it easy for viewers to lose interest.

Furthermore, the notion that 'sorority' alone can conquer all malevolent intentions creates an unrealistic and implausible scenario, making it difficult for viewers to become fully immersed in the story.

One of the series' strong points is the chemistry between the female protagonist and her two or three co-protagonists. However, this strength is overshadowed by the simplistic notion that a noble cause can mend a broken friendship.

Finally, it's worth noting that, despite the potential to develop a richer plot and atmosphere, no male character is given the opportunity to showcase strong acting from beginning to end. This imbalance detracts from the overall quality of the series.
