El Secreto del Río

It's a fantastic show that gives viewers outside of Oaxaca a glimps into a hidden world. It's a fascinating and beautiful culture that can teach the rest of the world how to live in harmony instead of hate. I really loved the music, especially the song during the ending credits.

The cinematography is stunning and so is the acting. The child actors were excellent, they gave award winning performances. The direction was obviously very good for the actors of all ages to give such compelling performances. It's a masterpiece!

The song during the ending credits is so gorgeous, and the singer/composer Maya Jamie Burns is my new favorite diva!

Right out of the gate this story amazed.

A story line that isn't the usual expectations on regular streaming services.

Full of suspense, intrigue, fear, courage and excitement with a little bit of honest and heartfelt emotion thrown in, to keep things spicy.

One of the best stories I have ever watched. The story had me hooked from the first few moments.

A story line so unexpected I'm amazed Netflix would have ever approved funding for, let alone production of this type of drama.

This has everything a story needs to be entertaining. Above all of this, the sincere, touching emotion of this is way beyond compare.

The actors, both young and old did an exceptional job telling the story.

What a wonderful story...I hope everyone will take the time to watch this, as it is exceptional.

Let me start off by saying you have to have a mature mind in order to properly digest this material. That means looking beyond the obvious and concentrating on the nuance on display here. The main characters are like oil and water; but at the same time, they are the same. Again, In order to fully comprehend what is on display here requires a very nuanced mind.

The writing and acting here is just a masterpiece. The writing is balanced and consistent with very small hiccups here and there. The young protaganists also are just fantastic. They display a range in acting that is perfection. The project also includes a fabulous musical score, fantastic cinematography and on location filming. This is just flat out a masterwork. Its a must watch.

Do yourself a favor and watch this masterpiece. This series is an emotional rollercoaster. If all the friendships were like the one Manual and Erik has, the world would be a much better place. A series about traditions, values, acceptance, love, and friendship. The two young actors who play Erik and Manual, are amazing. They definitely need an award. The series also is colorful, and shows many beautiful sceneries. Every episode is full of surprises, new emotions and new stories. Watch it on Netflix. It shows pure love and sacrifices among two friends that they are willing to do anything for each other and protect and support eachother all the way in life!!!

For me, certainly one of the ten best series seen in a long time. The actors, both children and adults, are excellent and very touching.

The story is unusual and gripping, it is told in a very simple way, without all the usual clichés about Mexico, and the discovery of this world and its very special culture fascinates and makes you think. I recommend the original version with subtitles to enjoy the nuances of the language and voices.

It is a pure masterpiece that carries very high and very far the values of friendship, respect, compassion, beauty, patience and perseverance... You may need some tissues at some moments, not included here. ;-)
