An unexpected death in a town where nothing ever happens may not mean much, unless we’re talking about Galicia. The stage for the thriller The Mess You Left Behind ranges from rugged cliffs hidden in the mist to steaming hot springs lost in the vegetation. Produced by Vaca Films, this eight-episode thriller is set in the fictional town of Novariz. A place invented by Carlos Montero, author of the series and the novel on which it is based (winner of the Primavera award), in the image and likeness of Galician municipalities such as Celanova, Allariz or Ribadavia, his native landscape.

The wild nature of this land, where the Romans believed the world ended, is blended with thousand-year-old monuments and ancient settlements. A magical world of superstition where a vibrant culture hides under a veil of mystery, born from the leafy forests, historical cities, picturesque beaches and unique gastronomy.
