In June, when La promesa joined Max's catalog, it became the most watched series globally on the platform for several weeks. The same happened with Café con aroma de mujer on Netflix, which remained at the top of the most watched list on the platform for months in 2022. 

Daily series have shown to have a lot of appeal among streaming audiences, so it was only a matter of time before a platform decided to bet on original production of this format in Spain, and the first one to do so has been Disney+.

Hand in hand with Diagonal (Banijay Iberia), the production company responsible for Amar en tiempos revueltos, Amar es para siempre or the recently premiered Sueños de Libertad, in October Regreso a las Sabinas, a daily series of 70 episodes, will arrive on Disney+, which will premiere one episode per day from Monday to Friday, just like traditional television.

The story

In Regreso a Las Sabinas, Gracia and Paloma, the Molina sisters, after many years without seeing each other, receive a call that makes them return to their hometown, Manterana, to take care of Emilio, their father.

Gracia reunites with Miguel, her youthful love, now engaged to Esther. Tano, Miguel's brother, was also in love with Gracia, and he doesn't stand idly by when he sees her again. Paloma takes care of the family's lands and faces the landowner Paca Utrera, who has a sinister plan for the town.

Emilio must regain the affection of his daughters, but a terrible secret he shares with Paca makes it difficult. Silvia, Miguel and Tano's mother, doesn't want Gracia to stay in the town. When the young Óscar is found dead in strange circumstances, Manuela must investigate the crime with the help of Álex, Óscar's brother who is a priest.

In front of and behind the cameras

The filming took place in both indoor and natural outdoor locations in Catalonia, specifically in the province of Barcelona, completely on natural settings without a studio. The main locations are: Finca Las Sabinas (Riells del Fai), Finca Acebuche (Sant Andreu de Llavaneres) and the town of Manterana (Sant Vicenç de Montalt).

Due to the natural and in some cases rural locations chosen to set the world of the two families, more than 10,000 km were traveled for each unit, which adds up to almost 20,000 km of shooting.

Created by Eulàlia Carrillo and directed by Jordi Frades (Los Herederos de la tierra, La Catedral del Mar), the series features a recognized team behind the cameras and a prominent cast, including some newcomers to daily series and others who are already established in this format.

Starring Andrés Velencoso (Amor de madre, Élite), Celia Freijeiro (Maridos, Vida perfecta), Ángela Molina (Velvet, La valla), Nancho Novo (Sueños de Libertad, Los Pacientes del Doctor García), Olivia Molina (La Valla, Amar en tiempos revueltos), Natalia Sánchez (Sueños de Libertad, Los herederos de la tierra), Miquel Fernández (Apagón, Alba), María Casal (Sentimos las molestias, Mercado central), Marta Calvó (Amar en tiempos revueltos) and Julia Carnero (La Catedral del Mar).

Disney+ will premiere the first five episodes of the original series Regreso a Las Sabinas on Friday, October 11.

The rest of the episodes will air one new episode each day from Monday to Friday, at 8:00 in the morning, starting on Monday, October 14 until completing the 70 episodes of the season.
