Netflix announces release date for Spanish true crime series El crimen de Pazos

Netflix has announced the release date and first images for its new Spanish miniseries, ‘El crimen de Pazos’. The three-episode production is scheduled to premiere on the streaming platform on November 13.

Produced by Bambú Producciones, the series is inspired by the real-life ‘Caso Aniceto’ from 2015, a crime that caused significant public outcry in Spain. The plot follows a couple in the town of Pazos whose lives are upended when the wife, Irene, suffers a brutal attack during a suspected robbery. While she fights for her life in the hospital, a Civil Guard sergeant named Elías becomes convinced that her husband, Aniceto, is the true aggressor, leading to a conflict with a system he believes fails to protect victims.

The series features a cast including Tristán Ulloa, Miguel Borines, Carlos Blanco, Fer Fraga, Verónica Sánchez, and Edu Soto. It was filmed in various locations throughout Galicia and directed by Carlos Sedes.
