Watch: “Gloria” and “Rabo de Peixe (Turn of the Tide)"
Netflix’s New-ish Portuguese Dramas are Captivating.
TV Series
Gloria follows espionage in a US-Portuguese commanded telecommunications station in the height of the Cold War complete with Russian sabotage, ultimately tearing lives apart in a small Portuguese village called Gloria. The attention to detail and visual cues from the 1950s is visually extraordinary.
More recently, Rabo de Peixe (Turn of the Tide) follows the dramatic story of four twenty-somethings who discover a shipwrecked cocaine shipment in the Azores Islands, and the effect the cash-influx suddenly has on their otherwise isolated island.
