World premiering in the main Canneseries competition, “El Inmortal – Gangs of Madrid” marks the latest original series from Movistar Plus, the Spanish pay TV/SVOD arm of Telefonica, made with Banij…
It shows. A Movistar Plus hallmark, “El Inmortal” reflects a real-life Spanish reality, the rise and fall – or here, fall and rise, then maybe fall and rebound – of the founding leader of Los Miami, a gang which controlled Madrid’s insatiable ‘90s drug business. José Antonio’s real-life counterpart survived four attempts on his life, becoming a legend and gaining his epic sobriquet.
This is the tale of a family man who wants a better life for his nearest and dearest. But he has no prospects. And these are Spain bling bling ‘90s when bankers made the front pages of society gossip magazines. The violence, when it erupts, is brutal, its details graphic, such as when José looks on unfazed as dogs eat the dismembered remains of two victims, a hand and some entrails.
The most major appeal of “El Inmortal” is its contradictory, complex central character. Could you comment?
