In the timeless city of Macondo, seven generations of the Buendía family navigate love, oblivion, and the inevitability of their past and their destiny. This is Netflix’s most expensive project in Latin America to date, with Colombian groups and indigenous communities producing the props and sets for this series. A pure joy to watch this cinematic Colombian marvel. The film adaptation exceeded my expectations and removed all concerns about the potentially disastrous attempt to make such a cold "unfilmable" novel. To my eyes, it looks absolutely authentic and magical. Bravo to the Colombian creators and the Colombian team for a very attentive, careful, and delicate adaptation of one of the most beautiful novels ever written! The cinematography is excellent and very vividly depicts the beauty of Colombia. The costumes, colonial architecture, interior design of the buildings, and carefully selected musical portrait together create an unforgettable atmosphere of Colombian magic in every detail.. "One Hundred Years of Solitude" is one of the biggest TV and streaming premieres this month. Check out our December calendar for more!
