Atresmedia TV, Zeta Studios, ‘Age of Ange’ Author Nando López Tease Teen Drama ‘Red Flags’ in Berlin

variety.com:

Holly Jones Simmering teen angst meets social awareness in “Red Flags,” an Atresplayer Original created by award-winning author and playwright Nando López, whose novel “The Age of Anger” was previously adapted for television by Lucía Carballal (“Locked Up”) and backed by The Mediapro Studio (“The Head”) and Atresmedia TV (“Money Heist”).

The project features within the second annual Next From Spain Sessions part of the Berlin Film Festival’s Berlinale Series Market, providing a first look at anticipated Spanish-language programming from industry heavy hitters that include the series producers Atresmedia TV and Zeta Studios. “’Red Flags’” is a teen drama that portrays with honesty, and without taboos or paternalism, the emotional life of Generation Z,” Miguel García Sánchez, sales director at Atresmedia, told Variety. “The series fearlessly explores the everyday realities of four friends, delving into their experiences of loneliness, interpersonal interactions and their strong fellowship created through social networks,” he continued.

Distributed by Atresmedia TV International Sales, García Sánchez notes that “Red Flags” “is already generating significant interest thanks to the direct and natural way it addresses these themes.” The eight-episode drama kicks off as adolescent firebrand Erika (Mar Isern) unwittingly provokes a wave of introspection after an uncut video of her Rubenesque body goes viral.
