Intimacy

I nearly cried in certain parts of this series, especially in the last episode of season 1. That scene between sisters was so touching and heartbreaking. The actors are fantastic in this series, they draw you in and make you feel something. I hope for a season 2.

Quite an engaging series. It's binge-worthy at 8 episodes.

What do I like about it? The script is well-written, the stories are multi-layered and the themes it tackles resonates with the viewer. The viewer, either male or female easily relates with the characters. And the actors portraying them are praise-worthy; their acting is spot on.

The stories themselves are about ordinary people just wanting to make a mark in the world in the best way they think possible and struggling to try to realize it. The insights the movie imparts amplify the human condition. Moments of introspection by the characters reinforce these insights.

This is another example of a long list of fine Spanish films worthy of our attention. No braggadocio just solid acting. As it is made, it's complete; all the major issues are resolved. A season 2 might not be needed although the producers and director could surprise us with a better season 2.

I thought this was really good. It put the theme at the centre of a political drama whilst, at the same, the political drama remained one thread amongst several. With excellent script, performances and direction, I was completely drawn into it and moved.

It's a slow burn but brilliantly acted and there's so much female power and lessons for us all. I think maybe those with more advanced thinking will appreciate it.

... served by wonderful cast and great cinematography (all aspects).

Such a delicate issue requires great deal of delicacy and the script, directing as well as the acting - did not spoil it by triviality or boldness and managed it in a subtle, non-manipulative manner.

Photography and settings were a delight and a very fine tribute to the beautiful city of Bilbao.

The music was just as good but regrettably I did sense any add-value from it.

I very much enjoyed the fine gallery of actresses portraying their rolls so naturally in so-called "gentle water-colors" way, yet I wish there was much more of the great Patricia López Arnaiz.

Sheer pleasure.
