Storyline:
Faith. Tradition. Secrets buried in plain sight.
Set in the southern Spanish town of Morón de la Frontera, Cuando nadie nos ve (2025) follows Lucía Gutierrez, a determined sergeant in the Spanish Civil Guard, who begins investigating a mysterious suicide that shatters the quiet of the community.
But as Holy Week begins, strange events at the first religious float processions suggest something more disturbing is brewing. What initially seems like isolated incidents quickly snowballs into a web of unspoken histories, small-town suspicion, and ritualistic tension, where every gesture holds symbolic weight and every silence hides something darker.
As Lucía dives deeper, the investigation becomes personal, and the sacred setting of Holy Week becomes the backdrop for a gripping thriller that confronts the line between devotion and deceit.
