Netflix has unveiled a gripping new true crime drama series titled No One Saw Us Leave, following the success of its previous crime thrillers and captivating mysteries, reports the Manchester Evening News.
The five-part thriller is inspired by the real-life story of two children abducted by their father after his wife’s infidelity.
This sets off a relentless quest by a mother to reclaim her son and daughter, aided by an ex-Mossad agent who has become a private investigator.
The conflict intensifies – not only between Leo and Valeria – but also within their influential families as Isaac and Tamara are whisked away to different parts of Europe to keep them from their mother.
The drama draws inspiration from Tamara Trottner’s 2020 memoir No One Saw Us Leave, or its Spanish title Nadie nos vio partir, in which she narrates how she and her brother Isaac were taken during the 1960s.
The narrative provides a glimpse into the Jewish-Mexican community of that era, according to Netflix’s Tudum, as Tamara’s mother faced condemnation from the tight-knit community.
Many are curious about the cast – here’s where you might have seen the actors before.
