Medical dramas have always appealed to the audience! The widespread acclaim and appreciation shows like ‘The Good Doctor’ and ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ have garnered not only bear testament to that fact but are also shining examples of the same.
Keeping in tandem with this is ‘Respira’ aka ‘Breathless’, Spain’s first-ever medical drama show created by Carlos Montero, one of the directors of Netflix’s dramatic crime fiction teen thriller ‘Élite’! The highly awaited show starring Manu Ríos, Najwa Nimri, Blanca Suárez, Aitana Sánchez-Gijón, Alfonso Bassave, and Borja Luna is all set to drop exclusively on the platform on August 30!
The teaser that offered the first insights into the 8-episode thriller promises a whirlwind of experiences and emotions! The show revolves around Joaquín Sorolla, a public hospital in Valencia where numerous lives are saved on the basis.
Doctors and residents work hard and in harmony (sometimes) against the frantic pace of the emergency room. Tensions, emotions, and desires accelerate the hearts of all the staff who work within its walls! The episodes of the show follow the residents and doctors as they navigate their highly complicated personal lives.
The arrival of a rather distinguished patient highlights the complicated situation of the Spanish public health system. This lights the fuse for what will eventually become an unprecedented strike!
