I've watched quite a lot of Spanish language series as I'm trying to learn the lingo and it fits in great with me doing half an hour to 45 minutes on my rowing machine in the evening. This is one of my favourites, in fact probably up there with Entrevias. The acting and direction is superb, the locations are lovely- and it's great that the filter on the camera's actually lets the sun through. This had me actually having to stop occasionally my rower cos I was laughing. But the emotion in all of this is based on their friendship and that one of them has cancer. People who have cancer can still laugh along with their friends, it can help. I rarely watch a series/film twice whether in English or Spanish. I've just watched this for the second time and enjoyed it as much as the first.
