In 2021, Netflix launched a website in which every Tuesday it has been publishing the viewing statistics of its content and a Spanish production is succeeding in style on the platform and not only Spain.
It should be noted that the site details the most popular titles of the last week not only at the level of a country, but also for more than 90 countries, so that you can observe the tastes of each population. The Netflix ratings are broken down into 10 lists for English Movies, English TV, Non-English Language Movies, and Non-English Language TV.
And it is that, its objective now seems to be to help users get a better idea of the greatest successes of the largest subscription streaming service in the world, hoping you discover something new to watch. Knowing this, we have found ourselves with a surprise.
Well then, the miniseries from Netflix The snow girl, adaptation of Javier Castillo’s crime novel, has quickly become a worldwide phenomenon and not only in Spain. Set in Malaga, the series premiered last Friday, January 27, has managed to hook viewers from all over the worldbecoming one of Netflix’s most successful national productions.
The snow girl, best national premiere and number 1 in 44 countries
As we have already pointed out before, these lists have been made since June 28, 2021so we can affirm that this is the most successful premiere of a national production to date, but it does not mean that it has surpassed great titles such as La Casa de Papel or Elite, since viewing hours were not measured at that time.
Once this is clarified, this great miniseries, of which a second season is already expected given its end, tells us the story of a 5-year-old girl named Amaya who disappears during a parade in Malaga.
His parents have no clue about his whereabouts, but the journalist Miren, played by Milena Smit, and the police officer Belén (Aixa Villagrán) will work simultaneously on the case to find out who kidnapped Amaya.
Point out that the miniseries consists of 6 episodes of approximately 45 minutes and you will find multiple timeskips between 2010, 2016, and 2019. In each timeskip, the hijacker will send a video of Amaya to Miren, thus establishing that Amaya is alive. However, there is no other lead on the kidnapper and the police have not made progress on the case for many years.
Despite his short life on the platform of streamingthe series ranks above other series that have had extensive marketing campaigns and even Golden Globe nominations.
Your success in spain It was more or less expected, but its status as a global phenomenon on Netflix, ranking in the top 10 in 44 countries, including Israel and Mauritius, is quite unpredictable. Until then, we can only hope that the end is the beginning of a new story and that we see Miren in action again.
