Swarm

From co-creators and executive producers Janine Nabers and Donald Glover comes this new comedy-horror. Set between 2016 and 2018, Swarm follows Dre (Dominique Fishback), an obsessed fan of the world’s biggest pop star who sets off on an unexpected cross-country journey that takes a dark turn.

Class of ’07

When an apocalyptic tidal wave hits during the ten-year reunion of an all-girls high school, a group of women must find a way to survive on the island peak of their high school campus. This comedy series follows a group of former classmates, now freshly entangled in decade-old drama, as they attempt to survive not just the apocalypse but each other.

Sin Huellas

This Spanish action-comedy follows two socially marginalised women who end up as suspects of a murder whose crime scene they had just cleaned up. Desi (Carolina Yuste) and Cata (Camila Sodi) were employees of a cleaning company – until they were fired overnight.

Stressed about money and barely scraping by, they receive a miracle in the form of a phone call: They have been asked to clean the mansion of the Rosellós, one of the most powerful families in Alicante. Everything is going well until they find a woman’s dead body.

But after the initial shock, Cata and Desi clean the crime scene, leaving it spotless – and making them the perfect suspects. Soon, the police are after them, but so are Russian hitmen, a family of millionaires, and an ex-husband with a mariachi band.

Dom

This Brazilian crime-drama tells the story of Pedro (Gabriel Leone), a handsome boy from Rio de Janeiro's middle class who is introduced to cocaine in his teen years, putting him on the path to becoming the leader of Pedro Dom, a criminal gang that dominated the tabloids in Rio in the early 2000s. Shifting between action, adventure and drama, Dom also follows Pedro’s father Victor Dantas (Flávio Tolezani), who as a teenager, makes a discovery at the bottom of the sea, reports it to the authorities and ends up joining the police intelligence service.

The series shows the journey of father and son living opposite lives, often mirroring and complementing each other, while both confront situations which blur the lines between right and wrong. In the new season, Dom becomes the most wanted criminal in Rio.

As the police close in, Dom tries to escape but ends up being arrested. With crime on the rise on all sides, he has only one option left: impersonate someone else to survive this hellish scenario.
