Leaving behind the emotional hangover after the end of the season of Los Bridgerton, Netflix has just released Clanes, a Spanish series that has all the ingredients and the spirit of other great productions like Fariña.

This thriller with seven episodes is led by Clara Lago and Tamar Novas and based on real events. The platform itself describes it as a "story of revenge turned into impossible love and inspired by a real estuary".

In Clanes, we follow a new lawyer who arrives to settle in the small town of Cambados. Her name is Ana (Clara Lago) and her presence doesn't go unnoticed by anyone, including Daniel (Tamar Novas), son of an important drug trafficker and visible leader of the "Padín clan" while his father, the real leader, remains in prison.
