Si nos dejan

This is a new and refreshing mini-series that tackles the outdated socio-economic, cultural and political mores that plague Mexico: The Chauvinistic/Toxic Machismo Culture, Elitism, Racism, Addiction, Alzheimers, Ageism, Social-Media Bullying, Draconian laws and Corruption. The cast is all top-notch. The writing and dialogue are real and profound and it has a lovely soundtrack that's not distracting and doesn't overpower the scenes, nor does it overwhelm the senses. I actually look forward to watching each upcoming episode.

This series just started June 2021, it has real Potential. It is off to a good start. Cast + plot is great so far.

"Si nos dejan" was the best Mexican telenovela of 2021, belonging to the subgenre called realistic telenovela. The story has been brought to the screen several times, each version leaves its mark and "If they leave us" is not the experience. The story revolves around a 50-year-old woman who discovers her husband's infidelity, soon she falls in love with a 35-year-old man, whose relationship is taboo in society. The script portrays the double standards of society, all the characters show their double standards, another issue that this soap opera touches on is machismo, the role of the mother and how it is limited, in addition to police impunity and the non-professional ethics of people who practice justice, journalism or psychology. The performances are remarkable, especially Mayrín Villanueva and Marcus Ornellas as the leading couple, Alexis Ayala gives a formidable performance as a realistic villain. Isabel Burr, Isidora Vives and Henry Zakka also offer outstanding performances, but it is worth highlighting the performance of Monica Dionne, who plays the most realistic role. The production is very good, with first class cinematography and well-done editing. "Si nos dejan" is a modern classic of telenovelas.
