Skam Espana

OverviewProduced by Movistar+ , Skam España follows a group of 16-year-olds in Madrid as they navigate identity, social media, and relationships in real-time.

The relationship between Cris and Amira’s friendship is tested, and the romantic arc with the character Joana (who has Borderline Personality Disorder) offers a sensitive, albeit sometimes dramatic, look at mental health within a queer relationship. This season is often cited as the peak of the series due to the electric chemistry of the actors (Irene Ferreiro and Andrea Villalba) and the specific focus on female queerness, which is often underrepresented in mainstream media compared to gay male narratives. skam espana
