Simple (TV series)

The plot concerns about the mishaps of four women with functional diversity (Nati, Marga, Patri, and Àngels) trying to live in a supervised apartment in La Barceloneta.

[6] Consisting of 5 episodes featuring an average running time of 30 minutes, it is a Movistar Plus+ original series, produced in collaboration with Destrucción y Salvación.

[7] The series was shot in late 2021 in Barcelona, including locations such as La Barceloneta Beach [es], Rambla de Catalunya, el Raval or the Montjuïc Cable Car.

[10] Enric Albero of El Cultural pointed out that the series ("a luminous comedy that reduces the ideological feverishness of the original") comes nowhere near the incendiary nature of the source material, even if it incorporates some political (anti-establishment) charge via the characters of Marga and, particularly, Nati, with the series otherwise managing to balance points of view and display an "agile" pace.

[11] The author of the original work, Cristina Morales (using the pen name 'Crispina Modales') denounced the whitewashing of the institutional violence exercised by social services (represented in the series by the character portrayed by Bruna Cusí) in the series so the latter could "reach the great democratic public, that great public that endows social services with messianic powers of integration in the shitty capitalism in which we live and that deliberately conceals the true nature of social workers" and derisively renamed the series as 'Nazi'.
