Okupas

This story takes place in an Argentina economical crisis, and these 4 guys, living in a house that is not theirs, have to face not only the police, but other gangs who want to take "their" house. And even though they are not saints, they will win your hearts, you will definitely love them.

I believe this is not just a story about the harsh reality or how many obstacles these people have to face, but a story about friendship.

Esta historia transcurre en un momento de una gran crisis económica en Argentina. Y estos 4 amigos, que viven en una casa que no les pertenece, deben enfrentar a la policía y a otros bandas que quieren ocupar "su" casa. Si bien ellos no son ningunos santos, logran ganarse tu corazón.

Creo que esta serie no trata simplemente la cruda realidad de este grupo de chicos, ni los obstáculos que deben enfrentar, sino más bien es una historia de amistad.

everything is excellent in this serie, if you have the chance you cannot miss it. 4 young man with different backgrounds merge in the same house and have to face new experiences living in a stolen house, being prosecuted by the police and other gangs. The serie consists of 11 episodes.

The series is really short so give it a try, you would be on the last episode without realizing. Great acting, characters development, directing. Everything was on point.

I must say I´m a little conflicted by the ending, it finished a little bit open in my opinion, I mean it´s really probable some people would say "oh that was good, where´s the second season?". It hasn´t got another one so and it doesn´t need it. But at least they should have added 10 minutes more for a definitve closure.

In such a crude and realistic way, it portrays the experience of young people without financial support who live on questionable acts to gain resources. In short, a shocking drama with some overtones of social horror and suspense on a fairly well calibrated level. The best Argentine series.

I'm from Argentina myself and I can say this series is one of the best ones this country has ever shot. It depicts a 2000/2001 crisis we were living through and how ordinary people had to struggle with life evey single day.

Every character is unique and you have no choice but to end up loving or hating them. Not only the four MC are cool, but also the antagonists and even their pet, a lovely and really intelligent dog, are amazing!

You know, due to Copyright issues, there was no official DVD released ever. However, it's still popular nowadays and views keep going up!!!

You can only watch it on Youtube or download it illegally around, and I think no subtitles exist. (If I happen to see people asking for it, I'll sub every episode on my own)

Okupas is one of those shows which show up every 50 years. So it's a must to watch it!

If you want the subtitiles, just mark my review as helpful and once I see enough clicks on YES, I'll start working into it!
