La notte che non passerà

This is SO CRAZY. In 2015, in Romania, a club named Colectiv had a very big fire in which died almost 100 people. One of the biggest tragedies in Romania. And the crazy part is, everything was exactly as in this documentary. Some rock band sing, one of the members shows the singer that the ceiling is on fire, then the masacre started. And in 2020, director Alexander Nanau released a documentary called Collectiv, which was Oscar nominee at 2 categories. You can search on the internet Collectiv tragedy Romania. I think you will still find the original footages somehow. That's so crazy!! It's like they copied the exact case, but the thing is... both of them are real.

It broke my heart because the same thing happened in Bucharest, just two years later. Same outdoor pyrotechnics, same foam ceilling, only one exit, and an impossible long wait for justice in a country that is so devoid of it. I don't think everything has to be perfect to be deeply moved by a tragedy that shouldn't have happened. To me the acting was great, I felt each of one of those parents pain, even though I am sure that the pain the real parents endured is incomprehensible. A tragedy like this goes well beyond the victims and their family and friends, it ripples through society, even if society is moving so painfully slowly.

Is it one the best series that I have seen? Certainly not! But it moved me deeply and that is something. After all, art should tell the truth.

It was a hyped series for me. Probably the biggest tragedy i lived as a brazilian and it lacked and still lacks a well directed and well writen movie/series.

Of course it's not east to tell a story like this, but the book it's probably 9/10 in terms of rating and this one, well, i'll give it 5.5/10 at best.

Poorly directed, scenes too forced, music annoying, acting not as great as i would expect. Well, it's a mess.

It's not like most Netflix series/production that we have high expectation and they deliver. This one here, at least for me, was highly expected, but didn't deliver.

We are talking only about the cinematography experience, not about the tragedy itself.

In many series or films based on real stories about great tragedies, many times they forget the situation of their families. In this case, the families are the focus of this dramatic story, which I found very interesting. The fight of the families for justice reaches the soul and provokes in an exciting way.

The way to tell this tragedy is very well done and respects family members by not turning the fire into entertainment. Simply fascinating from start to finish.

This series is of high quality, made with care and hard work. A journalistic study of hours and a good detailed investigation about the rescue work, among other things.

I also applaud the choice of the actors, all wonderful, the atmosphere of the Brazilian houses, of middle class families and even the clothing! Add more realism.

In short, it is a great dramatic series, told realistically, respecting the family members and at the same time full of suspense and tension until the very end.

This is an excellent series, based on a book about the Kiss Nightclub tragedy in Santa Maria, RS, Brazil, in 2013.

245 young people, most College students from the many Universities in town, lost their lives in a fire during the party inside the nightclub. Ten years after the tragedy, no one was arrested. Four people were prosecuted but the trial was annulled.

Most of the young people were 18-30 years old. The series was endorsed by the parents of the victims, who still fight for justice to this day.

The cinematography is beautiful, the terror and senseless deaths are well portrayed. I highly recommend this series.
