La Petite Fille sous la neige

To be honest I almost didn't make it through the first episode. Decided to stick with it and ended up really liking it. I'm glad I didn't stop. The main character was my initial problem. She's a journalist for a newspaper and I don't think she smiled except maybe once or twice. She's got a horrific backstory so I forgave her. She gets involved in the story of a 5 year old girl who goes missing during a parade. The story is shown from her perspective along with the female detective that's working on the case. Also shown are the parents story as well as eventually the kidnapper. But the journalist is the real star here. She's tenacious in her fight to solve the mystery and sacrifices some of her own dignity along the way.

The story takes place in Spain with subtitles. There's nothing upbeat or with the slightest bit of humor, as it should be. But that means it's pretty gloomy throughout and seems very suited to the story. In the end, I thought it was very well done and they left it open for a new case.

What more can I say?, if not that this story is as beautifully told as a fine aging wine. From the very first episode, it grips you tight and continues to grow in beauty all the way to the end. It is about determination and not giving up, the tale of how the love of a parent combined with a professional's sens of duty can accomplish big things. I couldn't stop quite honestly, binged it with a few breaks here and there and did not even see the time go by. This is something that I would recommend to anybody who enjoys a good thriller mystery to watch over the weekend. Make yourself a good meal, get some snacks, and drinks, invite a few friends and simple watch this!

I am usually immediately turned off from watching something that is dubbed in English and nothing the actor's say match up but I kept trying to overlook it because I was interested in finding out who did this and also who did that. Clearly nobody is going to be invited to all the award shows BUT that's fine. In my opinion, it was still good enough that I wanted to watch one episode every day until it ended but not too good to where I felt the need to binge watch it too quickly. I don't have a problem with that! I felt like I wanted to leave a review that explains my opinion in case there is someone like me who checks the IMDb rating for a show or movie before they start watching it and they immediately see a good bit of really low rating's. I would say that the series doesn't really deserve that many low rating's but a rating is based on each person's opinion or perspective. I would suggest giving it a try if anyone is on the fence since the ending looks as though they are probably going for a season two.

This is layered. An engrossing story within an immersive story. Milena Smit is quite convincing as the young journalist with a tortured past that she has difficulty overcoming. Veteran actor Jose Coronado is quite likeable as Miren's teacher and confederate. And Aixa Villagran is quite commendable as the tireless, persistent investigator.

The approach of the film to storytelling is engaging even as it jumps from one year to another. The viewer might be wondering whatever happened to Amaya because her screen presence is limited for the most part to the videos Iris sends to Miren 3 years apart. But the patient viewer gets the complete picture in the penultimate episode.

This Spanish production is worth watching. It's bingeable.

Watchable and good execution. From the start it maintains the grip and suspense. It could have been a treat to watch if the script was well written with some intense and egde of the seat moments.

The casting needs some brilliant selection of actors.it is not for every kind of audience. Compare to Nordic mystery thrillers it is half baked.these kind of stories need fully engaging without any dull or lag moments in script.but this one has some dull and lag moments. The director's narration should have been better. This web series could have been three to four episodes instead of six episodes.overall watchable one. Go for it.
