‘Anatomy of a Moment’
Image Credit: Movistar+ Spain’s turbulent democratic transition gets a forensic, almost procedural treatment in Anatomy of a Moment, a historical drama built around the failed 1981 coup d’etat that nearly returned Spain’s neophyte democracy to Fascism.
Directed by Alberto Rodríguez and based on Javier Cercas’ bestselling account, the series features Money Heist star Álvaro Morte as Prime Minister Adolfo Suárez, one of the main instigators of the coup. The Moviestar+ series is a powerful, and timely, reminder that democracy often hangs by a thread.
