A NETFLIX SERIES

SIX YEARS AFTER AMAYA'S DISAPPEARANCE

My baby.

Play it again.

Play it again.

I know you're in shock,

but I need to ask if you're sure it's Amaya.

Today is her birthday. Did you know that?

I saw it in the police report.

How long will it take you to find her?

It's too soon to draw any conclusions, Ana.

But you've got clues, right?

The tape, the room…

The lab is analyzing the envelope, we're also--

Belén.

-I've already missed six years with her. -What do they want?

Why are they doing this?

The person who sent it hasn't contacted you

or asked you for money.

We think it's some kind of…

proof of life.

Proof of life?

Who uses VHS nowadays?

It's under secrecy in summary proceedings.

I'm begging you. Don't publish a single word. Please.

There can't be more deaths.

That wasn't my fault.

Hourly news bulletin.

News from Andalucía.

The new year hasn't put an end to violence against women.

A 45-year-old woman was choked to death this morning,

allegedly by her 54-year-old husband in the municipality of El Cuervo.

She's the first victim of violence against women this year.

Civil Guard sources say that the incident…

I'll look at this, thanks.

Good morning.

Does anyone know where the TV remote is?

No.

You all know who Amaya Martín is, right? The little girl who disappeared.

-Yes. -Yes.

As future journalists,

you must have noticed how the media has reported the news.

By playing loads of ads to get rich.

Right, people have to make a living.

But focus.

Who can tell me the exact time she disappeared?

During the parade.

At 6:45 p.m.

Be specific.

When reporting news, you have to be specific. People like that.

Let's see. How old is the girl?

Five.

She turns six on April 25th.

Here it is.

According to sources close to the Amaya Martín disappearance investigation,

it's a close friend of the family

who has been called in to the police station.

Now's when the show really starts.

The parents are emotionally destroyed and have asked the alleged kidnapper

to give their daughter back.

Thank you.

What is your relation to Amaya Martín, and when did you see her last?

She's my best friend's daughter, they're like family to me.

And we see each other frequently.

Why didn't you tell us about your criminal record last time?

Shit, because I knew this would happen.

That accusation has been haunting me for years.

You know the truth. You've seen the file.

I didn't sexually assault anyone.

Where were you on the evening of the 5th?

I was watching the Christmas parade with my family.

We took our daughter. She was excited.

-A lot of people saw us. Ask around. -Were you with your family the whole time?

-What? -Your family.

Were you with them the whole time?

Yes. Well…

When it started raining, I went to get an umbrella, that's all.

An umbrella.

Yeah, an umbrella. Will you arrest me for that?

No.

You went home for one. Did anyone see you?

No, I didn't go home, I went to a store to buy one.

How long did it take you to get there and back?

I don't know.

Twenty minutes or so.

There are loads of shops in that area. It took you 20 minutes?

They were all closed.

What time did you leave your family?

It must have been…

around 6:30 p.m.

Please mark the exact spot you were watching the parade.

Around here, yes.

Right here, on Santa Isabel street.

-When can I go? -Where is David?

-Calm down. -I won't!

-Please go. -That fucker has my daughter!

-You can't be here. -That fucker has her!

Okay, calm down. Please.

-Stop shouting. -Where is he?

-I won't say it again. -What's going on?

I want to talk to him. Where's he keeping her?

-Calm down. -Did he hurt her?

-Did he hurt her? -Calm down.

Rosa!

Grab him!

-Where is David? -Get him out of here.

He has my daughter!

-Get him out of here! -Where is he?

-We get it. -Álvaro, I don't know.

-He knows something. -He doesn't.

-You know something! -Please.

Rosa!

-Please. -Rosa!

Ana…

Yeah.

I appreciate it.

Do you want a couple of tickets to the game?

I'll tell the paper to take care of it.

No, don't worry. Thank you. Okay, bye.

We're going to the newsroom. I just got a tip from the police.

Was David Luque at the parade?

Do you think he had time to take her?

Maybe. He was here with his family, watching the parade.

At 6:30 pm, he leaves.

Amaya disappeared at Constitution Square at 6:45 p.m.

What's the distance between the two points? 0,25 miles?

0,20 miles.

According to the app, it would take David Luque five minutes

to get from Santa Isabel street to where the girl went missing.

Add three or four minutes to that. It was packed.

It probably took him 8 or 9 minutes.

What time did Luque say he left his family?

Around 6:30 p.m.

In ten minutes he could've reached Constitution square and taken Amaya.

The girl loses her father and bumps directly into a familiar face.

-Luque. -He leads her to the doorway.

He takes her raincoat off.

It doesn't add up.

If he was back to his family at 7:00 p.m., he only had 15 minutes to take the girl.

And then what?

-What did he do with her? -Hide her somewhere?

Where?

That guy has a moving company.

What if he hid her in one of his vans?

Check the cameras in the area. See if any of his vans were parked there.

He didn't do it alone.

He didn't have enough time to take her and go back to his family.

-What about the neighbor? -What about her?

She saw two or three people in the entrance.

Send her a picture of Luque, see if she recognizes him.

Request a search warrant. Let's go get him.

Yeah, I know. I have to restart it. That much I know, honey.

Okay, bye.

Your name is Miren, right?

Yes.

I'm really sorry about yesterday.

Let's get this straight.

I'm the boss here, and you have to obey me.

If you don't like it, you can go. Understood?

I almost called the school to kick you out but Eduardo convinced me otherwise.

It looks like you fought the right guy.

-You have a good nose. -Thanks, I guess.

Help Eduardo with this case.

If she gets into trouble again, it will be on you,

and she won't step foot in another newsroom.

-Understood? -Yes, Paco.

What do you have on Luque?

My contact at the station says he was sentenced in '83

for sexual assault against a minor.

-How old was the girl? -Thirteen.

Fuck.

Do you think he took her?

He might have had time to take her and hide her.

But do you think he did it?

Maybe.

But I'm not completely convinced.

I could tell he was worried about her.

Genuinely.

There are some things you can't fake.

I want a profile on David Luque for the 3:00 p.m. website update, okay?

People have to know who this guy is, inside out.

-Where do we start? -At the beginning.

Someone owes me a favor at the courts.

He has information on Luque's case.

Hey, how are you, honey?

Don't worry, everything's fine. Go with Mom.

That's it. Go on.

-You three check the bedrooms. -Okay.

Good.

The police investigation is focused on Luque's home

and his moving business.

Officers want to determine if Amaya…

Laura.

-Yes. -Talk with the manager.

With every minute that passes, her parents are more distraught.

They're anxiously awaiting…

FORENSIC POLICE

-What's up, Mario? -Working away.

Hi, Chaparro.

-How are things going there? -No sign of the girl.

But the guys watching the balloon seller say something's up.

COURTS

INCOMING CALL - MOM

-What is it, Mom? I'm working. -I don't want to distract you.

-I just wanted to see how you're doing. -Good.

I wrote an article about the missing girl yesterday.

Seriously?

Honey, talk with your bosses

and ask for less lurid stories, okay?

You've got enough on your plate already.

Did you go to that thing?

Yes.

Are you okay?

Yeah, Mom. Don't worry. I'm fine.

If the work at the newspaper is too much, stop, okay? Please.

Okay, but I have to focus on the missing girl.

I need to do this.

Okay, honey,

but be careful.

Please, take a seat.

Have you spoken to Inspector Millán?

No, Mom. I have to work, okay?

I'll call you when I can.

Miren!

-Whose number is this? -Pedro López.

The inspector who investigated David Luque's case in '83.

Inspector Pedro López?

Ex-inspector.

-Do you have the money? -Of course.

Do you have the information?

The Luque thing happened almost 30 years ago.

And they let you take the file from the archives?

I keep a copy of all my cases. As a souvenir.

Your girlfriend?

My student.

Order something, beautiful. I'm paying.

No.

"The accused, David Luque…"

It was the girl's father.

The neighbor's father.

He was livid when he found out his daughter had fucked half the neighborhood.

That girl

was canny.

She was a little whore.

You have the same look.

-What's your problem? -What's your problem?

We're leaving.

-We're leaving! -I'll get you.

-Don't go. -You'll pay for this!

What?

I know why you were offered early retirement.

You took your official gun out at a whorehouse and demanded free booze.

If you so much as look at that girl, I'll make you famous.

Is that what you want? No, right?

Thank you very much.

Let's go.

Don't look. Relax.

Here.

I don't need anyone to defend me.

Close the door. We're freezing.

Why did you call?

The balloon seller.

Someone lent him a van this morning but he hasn't left.

-Does he live alone? -It seems so.

Didn't he say he has a daughter?

If you want snacks, we're stocked. Since we have to wait…

And Fanta. We can have a dinner party. Play cards. What else do you need?

What's up with the box?

-Should we go? -Wait.

Let's go.

Juancho!

-Stop. -Don't move!

Don't move!

Let go of me!

I didn't do anything.

I didn't do anything, I swear.

-Why were you in such a hurry? -I didn't do anything.

-I swear. -What's in there?

I only transported it, I swear.

I needed the money.

Please, inspector.

I didn't do anything, I swear.

I swear.

You son of a bitch. Fuck…

-What the fuck is that? -Answer.

Where's the girl?

I don't know anything about a girl, I swear. I don't know anything.

Take him to the station.

You son of a bitch.

Why did you let go of her?

Why did you let go of her?

Tell me why you let go of her.

Álvaro.

What was so important?

What was so important you had to let her go?

-Explain yourself. -Please, Ana.

It was packed. What on earth were you thinking?

Who lets go of a kid in that situation?

You're never here, Ana.

What?

You're never here.

Never.

I take care of the house, of Amaya.

-Don't start. -No, I take care of everything.

You only think about work.

-I do what? -It's your only priority.

You and my daughter are my priority!

What's her favorite cartoon to watch in the morning?

-Huh? -Seriously?

I'm serious. What is it?

What's her favorite cereal?

Tell me.

-Ana, tell me. What is it? -I know…

-I know. -Do you? And her favorite song?

What was her favorite song? We sing it every day on our way to school.

There are three songs, but one is her favorite.

-What is her favorite song? -Stop it!

Stop it.

I'm sorry, Ana.

I'm sorry.

Forgive me.

I'm sorry.

Sorry, I love you.

I'm sorry.

Please forgive me, okay?

He was 18.

She was 13.

A five-year gap.

Having sex with your neighbor when you're a kid is one thing,

kidnapping a girl is another.

-Do you think it's the same profile? -I don't think anything.

It's what his file says.

What was the girl's name?

The one from '83.

-She was a minor, it doesn't say. -It does.

Look at the doctor's report, at the end.

Rosa Márquez.

It rings a bell.

-Why does it ring a bell? -Luque's wife. I met her yesterday.

They ended up together.

They've been together for almost 30 years.

She married her rapist? That doesn't line up.

In any case, that doesn't prove anything.

We don't know anything. Just what it says here.

We work with facts.

We have to interview Luque's wife.

No.

We have enough for an article.

-But listen… -I'll take care of it.

Eduardo.

What if Luque's innocent?

What if they're wasting their time with him instead of looking for Amaya?

I'll wrap up here and head that way.

Shit, Sergio.

I completely forgot.

I know.

I know we haven't seen your sister in forever,

but I really don't feel like it today.

Yeah.

I promise I'll go out more, but not today.

You go if you want to.

Are you sure?

Okay.

Then we'll order Japanese takeout and watch a movie at home.

No. All I've had today is my morning coffee.

-Chaparro says hi. -Sergi…

Sergio says hi and he wants that beer you owe him.

Okay, I'll wrap up here and see you soon. Bye.

Juancho has nothing to do with the girl.

He got nervous because, besides hash and balloons,

now the idiot also traffics exotic animals.

-Anything else? -Yes.

We have to let David Luque go soon. We don't have any evidence.

It's a direct order, what can I do?

How much does that lawyer make?

Looking like that…

He has to make more than us, right?

He works at one of the best firms in Madrid

and took an express trip to defend the owner of a moving company.

It's a bit weird, right?

Do you have David Luque's accounts?

His house is paid for.

He paid off his mortgage a couple of years ago.

-And our friend bought an awesome yacht. -No kidding.

He sold it after the recession. The warehouse is also his.

Where does this guy get his money from?

His wife doesn't work. A moving company isn't that profitable.

-But they rent an apartment out. -What?

His wife owns an apartment they used to rent out.

-It's empty now? -Mm-hmm.

Why the fuck haven't we searched it?

Because it isn't in David Luque's name, girl.

Hi.

Is your Mom here?

You were at the flyer rally.

You almost hit my dad.

It was a misunderstanding.

-I'm sorry, I can't help you. -I just want to ask some questions.

I won't publish anything you don't want me to.

Our lawyer said we can't speak with the press.

I think your dad is innocent.

Help me prove it, please.

Come in, we can't talk here.

The worst thing after sexual assault

is fear.

At the beginning,

it's fear of being alone with a man.

Then, fear of crowds.

Fear of leaving the house.

Of driving.

The worst part is the fear.

TREBOL BUILDING

I don't mind showing you the house.

I'm exhausted. We have nothing to hide.

Thank you for doing this.

We were renting it, but due to the crisis we didn't get any money.

And we can't sell it.

I keep asking my husband to brighten it up with some paint.

Please wait here.

Eva, take a look around here.

My dad never would have hurt Amaya.

He loves her as if she were his niece.

Or his daughter.

Besides, he could never hurt anyone.

They're making it all up, fuck.

Does your dad only work in the moving business?

Sometimes he does other jobs.

What does that have to do with Amaya?

No, nothing. Take it easy.

Let me show you something.

She's super high, Dad.

You gave her too much.

Take her clothes off.

Don't worry.

That's it.

Come on, hurry. Her bra too.

Don't worry.

What's that?

-Please. -Is that my son, Samuel?

-Please. -David?

What?

Inspector, you have to see this.

It has to be here.

-You'll write everything, right? -Of course.

I promise.

Amaya grew up with us.

She played with my sister for hours.

This is a fucking nightmare.

Arturo, call the judge. And send forensics in now.

Copy.

That son of a bitch.

-Hello? -Samuel?

Mom, what is it?

Why? I don't understand.

"Why" what? Calm down, Mom. Relax.

What have you done, Samuel?

What have you two done?

What are you talking about?

Son, I'm at Grandma's with the police.

Tell me it's not true, please.

Tell me it's not true.

What have you done, Samuel?

Tell me you haven't done anything to Amaya.

Please, say it.

Is everything all right?

Samuel, what is it?

-What's going on? -Shut up!

Shit, I knew it.

Samuel.

-I knew it. -Samuel.

-Shit, I knew it. -Calm down, Samuel.

Samuel, talk to me.

Talk to me. Calm down.

Calm down.

Samuel, relax.

We didn't do anything to Amaya, I promise!

No!

No!

Call an ambulance!

Call an ambulance.

I just called.

SIX YEARS AFTER AMAYA'S DISAPPEARANCE

Ana, wait.

POLICE HEADQUARTERS

I just don't get it.

Why did they send us that video?

Why now?

I don't know and I don't care.

Amaya is alive.

That's what matters, yes.

How are you doing?

I haven't heard from you in a while.

I heard you got a promotion.

I'm happy for you.

This doesn't change anything.

You and I have nothing to talk about.
