In the eternal city of Macondo, seven generations of the Buendia family travel through the world of love, oblivion and the inevitability of their past and their destiny. This is the most expensive Netflix project created in Latin America to date, in which Colombian groups and indigenous communities create props and scenery for the series. Pure pleasure to watch this cinematic Colombian wonder. The screen adaptation exceeded my expectations and dispelled all fears about the potentially disastrous attempt to make a decent film out of such a cold “unscreened” novel. It looks absolutely authentic and magical to my eyes. Bravo to the Colombian creators and the Colombian team for a very thoughtful, careful and delicate adaptation of one of the most beautiful novels ever written! The cinematography is outstanding and very vividly depicts the beauty of Colombia. Costumes, colonial architecture, interior design of buildings and carefully selected music create an unforgettable atmosphere of Colombian magic in every detail. One Hundred Years of Solitude is one of the biggest premieres on TV and streaming this month. Check out our December calendar to learn more!
