THE DEPARTMENT OF TIME
Prime Time Series - 8x70' - Action / Adventures
Fascinating mix of adventure and fantasy that will transport you to different key moments in the history of Spain. From the Ministry of Time, a unique patrol embarks on exciting time travels with the vital mission of preserving the integrity of the past and ensuring that it is not altered.
Designed for a broad family audience, this series combines the thrill of adventure with historical lessons from Isabella the Catholic to the War of Independence. From the return of Guernica to the picaresque Spain of El Lazarillo. From the intrigues of Dalí and Lorca at the Residencia de Estudiantes to the young Lope de Vega enlisted in the Invincible Armada.
Adventures, comedy, irony and feelings intertwine to narrate the daily life of a Ministry created to safeguard History from temporal digressions that could change the present. Our protagonists are not superheroes, but ordinary people exposed to unusual situations. Julián, a modern-day SAMUR nurse, Amelia Folch, the first female university student in Barcelona in 1880 (an image of modern Spain) and Alonso de Entrerríos, a soldier of the Flanders Tercios (an example of the courage and patriotic sacrifice of our armies). All Spains together for a common goal: to fight so that the past does not change.
