The series El Castillo depicts the world of prostitution and human trafficking
The series El Castillo, written by Isabel Peña and Eduardo Villanueva and directed by Elena Martín and Sandra Romero, examines the realities of human trafficking and prostitution. The production consists of six episodes, each lasting slightly less than one hour.
The narrative follows two central characters: a pimp known as El Suizo, played by Raúl Arévalo, and a young woman named Valentina Vidal, played by Claudia. According to critic Isidro Catela, the story portrays these figures through a human lens without using sensationalism. While the series does not intend to be a confessional work, Catela notes the presence of two subtle references within the production.
