This series shows the murder of a 4 years old girl ... with a comedy music in the background !!

Structurally speaking is not a mess, and some acting is quite passable albeit there's lots of scenes that remind you of Soap Operas and, not in a good way. To be honest, you can watch it doing chores and for the sake of constructive criticism. But in other cases is just plainly forgetable. This case historically speaking was a smoke bomb to many stuff happening in that political time. In brief words it's just a telenovela glorified with better production values.

It was good for one reason - the acting was uniformly excellent. All actors played their characters to perfection. The story line began so well and then sort of degenerated into a jumble. It was almost like someone didn't want the real story told. Do you suppose? - nah, couldn't happen.

Whoever made this movie deserves more exposure from Netflix. It kept me on the edge for the entire six episodes. I wish they would have summed up the whole mess at the end but it was still worth six hours of my life.

Waste of time! Love the based on a true story series but this one is such a disappointment.

In an effort to shame the prosecutor and investigation of the death of a 4 year old (a true story), the movie horrendously mocks the handling of situations that in reality must have been tragic. From the comedy music used as background, to the stupidity of the characters, everything about this movie is infuriating. While they "expose" the corruption and incompetence of the Mexican investigative team, they expose their own movie making incompetence, while making a profit at it.
