La otra mirada

Just finished watching season 1. Love the clothe, story line. Amazing cast. Loved how season 1 ended. Major twist on who killed Tersa's dad. Now I need to see what happens next. So upset that I can't find season 2 anywhere. Here on this app I can only find pictures of each episode of season 2.

We are almost through the first season PBS Passport and are very impressed with the quality of storytelling, acting, directing, cinema etc. It surprised us to get such a good series from Spain because we are so used to British dramas. The issues dealt with are mature and complex, much like what women were dealing with here in the US in the 1970s, and within the last decade up to the present. A lot of the tension stems from ancient beliefs and practices set against modern ideas. And there is a fascinating mystery throughout that still keeps us wondering. Subtitles let us know what they are saying, but sometimes they talk so fast we can't keep up. Watch it anyway.

I enjoyed this series very much and love Spanish period pieces, however the ending was very disappointing. I would have loved to see another season to fix the storyline for most characters.

In spite of the fact that the series in in Spanish, so I had to read the subtitles, I think it is one of the most brilliant series I've ever watched!

There is so much to admire here: the intriguing plot with all its twists and turns, the outstanding cast, the sumptuous setting, the music, the clothing- all of it combines to be such a beautiful, mesmerizing, compelling series!

While there are a few main characters who draw our attention, the minor characters also add so much to this original and very creative series.

I have been unable to stop watching since I began because everything able the series has drawn me into the world of this wonderful school for girls in Saville. I've never been to Spain, yet I'm so completely drawn to these complex characters!

Please, please give us more! I want to know what happens to the school, to the students, to the teachers, and to my most favorite characters!

Do yourselves a favor and fall into the beautiful and complex world of this amazing, beautiful, complex series!!

This series appears to be made for a specific local audience. It has little to offer in the way of global interest. It is a period drama from Spin that deals with changing social mores in that country during the 1920s. Attached to this main premise is a loosely fabricated mystery. The acting is below average, with actors delivering their lines as though reading from cue cards or a teleprompter. The heavy industrial strength makeup for the actors makes them all look both garish and ghoulish. That has a most disturbing and most distracting visual impact. It is, as others have pointed out, a soap opera filled with feminist messages about strong women and overtones of communism. It is really not worth the effort to go much beyond episode 1!
