The story

In a contemporary Mexico City, a group of six sophisticated close friends navigate through every life experience imaginable together: love, lies, heartbreak, marriage, divorce, kids, career, job loss, fights, break-ups, and unbreakable friendships.

What it’s like

Set in contemporary Mexico City, this ensemble comedy-drama follows six close friends through the messier stretches of adult life: romance, deception, heartbreak, marriage and divorce, raising children, career setbacks, and the arguments and reconciliations that keep a friendship going. Its texture is social and conversational, built on shared meals, apartments, and the easy rhythm of people who know each other well. The mood is warm and wry, with the sting of real hurt running under the jokes, so it moves between laughter and tender sadness. Its conflicts are interpersonal rather than physical, so the emotional register does most of the work, with little or no violence. It suits a relaxed evening or a stretch of binge-watching when you want familiar faces working through heartbreak and loyalty over many episodes. It is for viewers who enjoy long-running friendship stories, Spanish-language drama, and characters who feel like people they could know.
