Quem Matou María Marta?

This is a well crafted crime mystery documentary showing all aspects and all sides of the story as much as it can. The story begins with the death of Maria Marta and it slowly turns into a big mystery. From an accidental death to a gruesome homicide. An exceptional who dun it crime story in real life.

There are two different sides to the story and the documentary takes an unbiased stand by interviewing almost everyone involved and shows both sides of the coin. There are many discrepancies in the story given by the family of the deceased, but at the same time the story given by the prosecution has its own flaws which makes it complicated to find the real truth.

The documentary will leave the judgment to the viewers by showing most of the facts and evidence gathered in this crime. I wish that the documentary showed more footage of the courtroom, but kudos to the production by taking an unbiased stand and showing the events as it is. I highly recommend this documentary to anyone who's interested in crime documentaries.

In October 2002 María Marta García Belsunce was found dead in the bathroom of her house in an exclusive gated community outside Buenos Aires. Her husband reported that she was injured; he assumed she'd banged her head on a beam and fallen into the bath. This theory was initially accepted by the authorities but due to certain irregularities further checks are made on her body... it is soon found that what happened could not have been an accident; it is a clear case of murder. The alibis of many of those close to her are shaky or clearly untrue and the destruction of evidence could be considered suspicious... or just people cleaning up after what they think was a tragic accident. Prosecutor Diego Molina Pico determines to find the truth and bring the guilty to justice.

Not being Argentinian I'd never heard of this case; indeed when I started watching I thought I was about to see a crime drama rather than a documentary! Early on I was unsure the case could possibly justify four episodes but once we learn the truth of how Maria Marta dies it becomes gripping. All those involved give their sides of the story. They sound plausible and my opinion as to who did what changed more than once. The resolution might not be as definite as one might want but a documentary can't be expected to provide answers to questions when the truth has yet to emerge. Overall an interesting documentary.

These comments are based on watching the series in Spanish with English subtitles.

When we think of the murder of a woman by five gun shots, the first thing that comes to mind is that it happened in a seedy alley in the middle of the night, not in a fancy Country Club for the wealthiest among us in the outskirts of a city.

The murder of Maria Marta García Belsunce seems as if it was taken out of a mystery novel, it begins with the discovery of a well-to-do socialite lying next to her bathtub, and the family thinking or assuming she hit her head on the tap and fell in, but what follows is so unfathomable it's hard to describe. The family assumes it is an accident, no one bothers calling the police, two doctors have different theories on the way she died, and without an autopsy she is laid to rest the next day.

But a district attorney did an autopsy and revealed that not only did Maria not died accidentally, but that she was also shot 5 times on the side of her head, and all the family is shocked somehow at this revelation

What follows is a media circus and some events worthy of a science fiction novel that you will have to see to believe. I will not spoil what happens in the end or if anyone pays for the crime, but this is by far one of the most bizarre true crime documentaries I have ever watched, NETFLIX is quickly becoming the home of these type of stories, and this is by far one of the most intriguing ones, filled to the brim with mysteries, conspiracy theories, family drama, but most of all it contains facts that fiction writers would never get away with.

4h of your life you will never forget! one of the best crime show i ever seen, and i have seen a lot trust me.

This documentary is not a waste of time at all, it is very well done and quite detailed. The cover-up story smells pretty bad, but I still have doubts.

Is it possible to make so many mistakes in a moment of extreme panic? Doubts doubts doubts... In short, if you like documentaries about crimes in real life, don't miss it. Entertaining and very well done.
