Ena y Las Abogadas lideran la oferta de ficción de RTVE

RTVE está presentando en los mercados de enero un catálogo de contenido que abarca ficción histórica, problemáticas sociales contemporáneas y formatos de investigación criminal. La lista del broadcaster español incluye ambiciosos dramas de prime-time y varias series documentales diseñadas para explorar complejos temas globales y nacionales.

La oferta presenta fuertes dramas de época, incluyendo Ena (6 x 55′), la laureada serie de RTVE que narra la vida de una joven inglesa que se convierte en Reina de España, renunciando a su pasado para enfrentarse a una tierra extranjera, un intento de asesinato el día de su boda, y la agitación de dos guerras mundiales, una guerra civil y la gripe española. También Las Abogadas (6 x 50′), una serie basada en la historia real de cuatro abogadas laboralistas —Lola González, Cristina Almeida, Paca Sauquillo y Manuela Carmena— desde la etapa final del franquismo hasta la masacre de los abogados de Atocha en 1977. Un tercer título, Asuntos Internos (6 x 60′), es un drama de suspenso ambientado en el Madrid de los años 70, que sigue a Clara, una de las primeras mujeres policías de España, mientras se infiltra en una trama para descubrir una red de corrupción vinculada al tráfico de heroína.

El slate también presenta thrillers de alto riesgo con resonancia contemporánea. La Frontera (5 x 60′) un thriller de época ambientado en 1987, donde un capitán de la Guardia Civil, al descubrir un inminente ataque de ETA en París, desafía al gobierno español para actuar junto a un policía francés. La tensión aumenta cuando su pareja está afiliada en secreto a ETA, pero se ve obligada a ayudarlo a frustrar el ataque, lo que lleva a una carrera contra el tiempo que involucra traiciones y dilemas de lealtad. El «noir sureño» contemporáneo, Weiss & Morales (4 x 85′), que está ambientado en las Islas Canarias y sigue la fricción profesional entre Nina Weiss, una agente alemana del BKA, y Raúl Morales, un sargento de la Guardia Civil española, mientras investigan crímenes en una comunidad donde conviven expatriados alemanes e isleños canarios.

Una de las novedades de esta temporada en RTVE, es su compromiso con el drama social y la narración documental. La serie íntima Dieciocho (6 x 30′) rompe prejuicios en torno a la inmigración al seguir la relación entre Cèlia, cumpliendo horas de servicio comunitario ordenadas por la corte, y Moha, un menor migrante no acompañado que trabaja para obtener estatus legal, mientras navegan por sus sueños y descubren el primer amor. Sin Gluten (8 x 55′) se centra en Ricardo, un chef con estrella Michelin cuyo problema con el alcohol lo lleva a ser despedido. Encuentra la redención como profesor en su antigua escuela de cocina, donde sus estudiantes, incluidos jóvenes en riesgo de exclusión social, lo ayudan a reconectarse con su pasión por la cocina.

También Hope Estamos A Tiempo (6 x 60′), que guía a los espectadores a través de soluciones inspiradas en el plan global “Project Drawdown” para reducir las emisiones de carbono y regenerar el planeta, utilizando un simulador de emisiones para cuantificar cada estrategia de impacto. Los documentales históricos incluyen Las Heroínas del Puente de los Cuervos (1 x 56′), que se centra en mujeres españolas exiliadas durante la Guerra Civil que se convirtieron en espías para la Resistencia Francesa antes de ser encarceladas en el campo de concentración de Ravensbrück. Otro intrigante thriller documental, ADN Colón. Su Verdadero Origen (1 x 90′), sigue la investigación de ADN de dos décadas que busca confirmar el verdadero origen de Cristóbal Colón.

Finalmente, Megamix Brutal (3 x 44′) es una serie documental que utiliza la historia de la discográfica Max Music y la rivalidad de sus fundadores para reflejar la sociedad española a través de tres décadas de música dance. El documental SAC (7 x 40′) detalla los métodos de la Sección de Análisis de Conducta del Cuerpo Nacional de Policía para resolver casos complejos mediante el análisis de la mente criminal. La lista se completa con ALTER EGO (3 x 35′), un documental que explora los avances en Inteligencia Artificial a nivel mundial, diseñando dos mundos ficticios con herramientas de IA de última generación.

Listing

SIN GLUTEN

In 1987, a captain of the Guardia Civil discovers an imminent ETA attack in Paris and, seeing that the Spanish government decides not to intervene, he acts on his own with a French policeman.

Many people were forced into exile during the Spanish Civil War. The war conflict and ideological persecution affected women and men alike, but in this documentary we want to focus on a group of Spanish women who had several factors in common: on the one hand they were freedom and democracy lovers, and on the other hand they all had the misfortune of being imprisoned in the concentration and extermination camp for women in Ravensbrück, Germany. Their journey until they were taken prisoner by the Nazis in the Second World War was overwhelming: after fleeing Spain, many of them landed in France, but with the Nazi invasion they became real spies who collaborated with the French Resistance against the Germans. Many were captured and imprisoned in a concentration camp that was the dismal scene of the most inhuman horrors.
