Los herederos de la tierra

I learned a lot about Christianity thanks to this series.

Amazing story with; awesome acting and directing.

I recommended this to everyone who loves history, drama, and learning about religions.

What a wonderful series. The costumes, the sceneries, the actors, the educational story, all of it was simply great done and to experience. It brought me back and I could completely disconnect and enjoy each episode. See it and you won't regret. Congrats to the director and all the staff.

Hope to see more of this genre. It merits 9/10.

Very good drama, depicted in the context of medieval Spain/Catalonia, reflecting its Moorish and Jewish legacy and the beginnings of the Inquisition. Won't win an Oscar but highly enjoyable drama. Btw, it's a sequel to the prior series La Catedral Del Mar, so if you're into this kind of genre I'd watch that one first. Both are very good yet different.

Engaging story of love, passion, betrayal, family values, and triumph amid adversity at an important segment of Spanish history. The story of Hugo Llor brings us to mid-14th century to early 15th century at a time of pogroms, corsairs, regnal successions when the influence of nobles on the royal court was considerable and when Jews were better off than other residents of Barcelona causing resentment among them.

It's mainly the story of Hugo Llor and Bernat Estanyol, the heir of Arnau Estanyol, who is the chief character in "Cathedral of the Sea," the prequel of this series by the same author, Ildefonso Falcones.

The avid student of European history will appreciate this story set against a nascent Spain when it's starting to flex its colonial muscle. He will be introduced to Spanish kings of those times like Peter of Castile and Alfonso.

This historical backdrop heightens the human drama as the viewer keenly watches the main characters tell their stories as they are caught up in events of that period.

The main actors are convincing especially Yon Gonzales and David Solans as the adult and the young Hugo Llor, Rodolfo Sancho as the adult Bernat Estanyol, Mercedes Leon as Barsha and Aria Belmar as Merce.

As this is a period film, the film ensures that the costumes and the settings are authentic. Quite picturesque are views of the vineyards under a bright sun.

Beside being a historical film, this one drives home important life lessons. Watch it. It's binge-worthy.

This is a great historical story. I binge-watched in 2 days. I am a sucker for good period series and this was a good one.

The story races along over the eight episodes and there are lots of twists and turns, with some of them being quite unexpected.

The acting is good from the ensemble cast. The scenery and sets are superb, as is the music, and it's very well shot. One slight quibble would be a couple of the sword-fighting scenes could have been handled a bit better, but that's a minor quibble in what is a really good series.

And, as I always say, watch the native language version with the subtitles. Why anyone watches things dubbed into a different language completely mystifies me. They're never as good.
