Asturias, a land with soul
A piece of land arises in the north of Spain with a particular aura that makes it unlike anywhere else in the country.

Here, there are mountains, forests and the sea, but there is one thing that characterises Asturias above all others: its life. This curious land of greens and greys has its own soundtrack which blossoms from the breeze and the squawks of seagulls, accompanying its inhabitants: artisans, innkeepers and businesspeople. They are a small sample of this mixture, a people who are open, affectionate and friendly. This is where we get to know Asturias, amongst the voices of those who play a leading role in the daily life of these iconic settings. This is the region in which The Girl in the Mirror, a new series from Netflix, was filmed: an experience that has left its unmistakable traces throughout the region. A warm presence remains in its businesses, in its streets: one of cameras, actors, and producers. A special affection, one that can break through the routine, is still observed in the words of its inhabitants. Without a doubt, we are in a land with soul.
