Considered the first Mexican to appear three consecutive years on the national top ten with his films No Sé Si Cortarme Las Venas o Dejármelas Largas, Amor De Mis Amores and Elvira, Te Daría Mi Vida Pero La Estoy Usando, Manolo Caro will soon release the series La Casa De Las Flores (13×30’) for Netflix and assured that this type of platform is what gave TV freedom again.
“Flexibility of platforms has rendered new TV absolute freedom and we, as creators, have to tap into this,” commented Caro.
This series is part of the catalog that the platform will launch in 2018, including stand-up comedy specials and four other contents, totaling 50 original ones that are expected to debut in Latin America and Spain.
For the actress Verónica Castro, working on this series was venturing into a different way to do TV from what she had done in telenovelas, and she was grateful for working for young creatives like Caro: “I am not afraid of new generations, on the contrary, I like to see they come with strength and we must learn from them.”
La Casa De Las Flores explores the need to protect and forgive loved ones, regardless of how uncomfortable that may be. The executive production was under the responsibility of Rafael Ley, Stacy Perskie, María José Cordova, Mariana Arredondo and Manolo Caro from Noc Noc Cinema.
