Currently making its international debut at Series Mania, “Mariliendre” is the latest boundary-pushing series produced by Suma Content and Los Javis – the creative minds behind “Veneno,” “La Mesías,” and “Vestidos de Azul.”
The six-episode musical comedy-drama, directed and co-written by Javier Ferreiro, is a vibrant love letter to friendship, queer identity, body positivity and Madrid’s famous Chueca nightlife in the 2000s. It also marks the high-profile acting debut of “Operación Triunfo” finalist Martin Urrutia.
