There's just one more day until Netflix subscribers can enjoy one last time an intense Spanish thriller set in one of Seville's most controversial neighborhoods. With a plot packed with family drama, action, and suspense , and featuring great performances from Mario Casas and Natalia de Molina , it's one of those films you won't easily forget.
This is Adiós , a film directed by Paco Cabezas and co-starring Ruth Díaz. Released in 2019 and shot in key locations such as Las Tres Mil Viviendas in Seville, the film tells the story of Juan, a third-degree prisoner who returns home to attend his daughter's first communion . However, a tragic event unleashes a spiral of revenge and corruption that changes the course of all the characters.

The film stands out for its carefully crafted setting, which realistically portrays the social context of the Seville neighborhood and avoids falling into simplistic stereotypes. Cabezas, who has worked on international productions such as Penny Dreadful , returned to his homeland to combine the aesthetics of a thriller with elements of Andalusian culture .
The script, written by Carmen Jiménez and José Rodríguez, weaves a story that intertwines grief, justice, and family tensions , with performances that lend strength and credibility to the story. Critic Eulàlia Iglesias commented to this same outlet that Mario Casas "has rarely been as convincing as he is in the role of Juan."
Goodbye , which received three Goya Award nominations in 2020, also shines for its soundtrack, with songs such as Me quedo contigo , by Los Chunguitos performed by Rocío Márquez, and the original song Un largo viaje , written by Rodríguez and Fernando Vacas. For lovers of Spanish cinema and suspense, this is the last chance to see it on Netflix before it is removed from the catalog, this Thursday, August 14 .
