I thought I would check out this show from Columbia, not sure what to expect. Wow, let me tell you, I watched the first show and was hooked. I mean hooked to the point where I was binge watching 12 hours straight at a time because I just couldn't get enough. I was hoping it would keep on going. I am really hoping for a second season. I liked it so much that I will probably watch the entire season again.
The story is both dramatic and soap-opera which creates a unique experience for the viewer. The story has tense moments as well as lot of fun moments in it.
Highly recommended.

this is the best TV show I ever view. It beats games oh thrones, house of cards, Dexter, et so many others because this a 86 episodes of pure delight. It is based on a reel context in the Columbian civil war against the Fark showing the intimate struggle of its people . This is not a scene created in Hollywood but the real life of a wounded country. The actors are fantastic specially the so tender Belky and the so scary Barragan, There are a lot of emphasis on family ties and friendship often menaced by external forces. Thank you Columbia for such a deep insight of your country.Thanks for Netflix to allow us to see so excellent show from other part of the world.
I am a busy career mom so between work, kids and home stuff I don't have a lot of time to watch TV but I was so captivated by this series that I couldn't stop. I literally stayed up until the early morning trying to get as many episodes watched as I could. I rooted for Belky as she had to overcome so many challenges. I cried as I learned about her history and past. I rejoiced every time she got back together with Manuel.
I was even more taken aback knowing that many of this was based on true stories. From a political perspective I didn't really understand the barriers and issues in reintegration besides an NPR segment I listened to in the car. This video helped me to understand a little bit more.
I recommend this show TO EVERYONE I know. I hope it receives a foreign film award because it deserves it!

I am a pretty serious focused career woman. I pride myself on not being distracted by TV or NetFlix crap. Well, all that is history now. From the first episode, I was hooked. I thought it would dull down but the end of each episode leaves a cliff hanger that leaves you wanting more...and more....So, I binged this series only sleeping 4 hours each night until I finished all 86 episodes.
(Now, I am ashamed to admit that I am re-watching this bloody thing. My only question is: how will I overcome this addition :-). Joking...)
La Nina has Great acting. Wonderful directing. Best TV series I have ever seen. I don't have a single complaint at all. All the characters add so much colour and texture to the show that it will blow your mind. Victor is hilarious. Betty and Nana are sweet kids. Mrs Mireya is a delightfully negative mom. The struggles of an ex-Guerrilla, Belky is wonderfully acted by Ana Maria Estupinan. Oh, and Belky and Manuel's love story is epic.
So. Yeah. Enjoy this. Savour it. it is wonderful.

It is so good to see a series about Colombia that venerates the human spirit in the face of adversity, rather than romanticizing violence, drug trafficking, and prostitution. The best television series I have seen in a long time.
A beautiful story about a girl, based on real events, who survives against all odds. Thank you, La Nina!
