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.

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.

At first I'd thought the story was implausible. After all, interns such as Miren don't get to work on stories of international importance. However, with input from veteran character actor Jose Corinado as experienced reporter Eduardo, things seemed much more stable. Miren threw herself into the story of the disappearance of the little girl and, while producing some good copy and a couple of scoops, she failed the rule of journalists not to get personally involved when she tried to solve the case.

There's one very minor clue in the first episode as to who the abductor might be, but it would take dogged investigating to find out the perp, something a viewer couldn't do. So the revelation in episode four of the back story of the kidnappers was something that couldn't have been guessed.

There were plenty of red herrings too, some involving Miren's shocking experiences prior to the series' start and which also explained how she knew Inspector Millán.

All was revealed, including the provenance of the title of the series which had puzzled me - no snow features at all. But, as British Rail once said in a different context, I was looking for the "wrong type of snow".

I watched the lot over a twenty four hour period and I recommend it.

I actually have no clue why people are giving this bad reviews. First of all, I don't understand how you can compare this to a telenovela. This is nothing like a telenovela. This is an extremely good Spanish version of an American or Nordic thriller series.

I was gripped from start to end, the only thing I would have wished for would be some clarification on certain things. There are a few loopholes.

Someone wrote that they mumble a lot. The Spanish always "mumble", or I'd rather say speak very fast and drop letters, especially those with an Andalucian accent. There is nothing different in this series compared to hearing Spanish people speak to each other in Spain.

Anyway, good series, will keep you excited from start to end.

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.
