Netflix debuts thriller ‘Não Tenho Medo’ amid Brazil's weekend series binge list

Netflix released the six‑episode thriller miniseries “Não Tenho Medo” on 8 July 2026. The adaptation of Niccolò Ammaniti’s novel Io non ho paura shifts the story to Veracruz, Mexico, during the 1986 World Cup. It follows ten‑year‑old Miguel, who discovers a hidden boy, Felipe, kidnapped in a nearby pit and uncovers family secrets and community silence, blending psychological tension with a loss‑of‑innocence narrative.

At the same time, Brazil’s Festival Teen published a weekend‑binge guide featuring five acclaimed series: the courtroom drama “Olhos que condenam” (Netflix), the suspenseful “O Paciente” (Disney+), the chess‑focused “O Gambito da Rainha” (Netflix), the time‑loop comedy‑drama “Boneca Russa” (Netflix), and the crime‑procedure “The Night Of” (HBO Max). The list highlights each show’s award nominations and streaming availability for viewers seeking a full‑season marathon over the holiday.
