City of Shadows

The striking architecture of La Pedrera serves as more than just a backdrop for this thriller. By placing a gruesome discovery on the facade of such an iconic structure, the series contrasts the elegance of Gaudí’s design with the harsh, modern reality of a criminal investigation. This tension drives the search for a perpetrator through a city that feels both familiar and deeply unwelcoming to the returning inspector.

Isak Férriz portrays a lead character forced into an uneasy partnership while navigating the professional fallout of past misconduct. The story relies on the friction of this investigation, grounding the mystery in the streets of Barcelona rather than relying on procedural cliches. It translates the tone of its source novel into a visual hunt where the history of the location is as vital as the evidence left behind.
