Nasdrovia is a Spanish comedy thriller television series created by Miguel Esteban, Luismi Pérez and Sergio Sarria, which stars Leonor Watling and Hugo Silva. Its first season aired on Movistar+ in 2020.

Premise[edit]

The story follows two lawyers, Edurne (Leonor Watling) and Julián (Hugo Silva) - business partners and former spouses both suffering from a midlife crisis - who decide to make a change in their lives and open a restaurant, operated by Franky (Luis Bermejo). It soon becomes the favourite of Boris (Anton Yakovlev), and thus the characters become embroiled in a relationship with the Russian mafia in Madrid.[1][2][3]
