Author Ignacio del Valle, Director Rai García Prep Spanish Crime Series ‘Black Suns,’ a ‘Thrilling Journey to the Dark Side’


The series will be presented during Conecta Fiction & Entertainment's pitch sessions and is based on del Valle’s crime series.

His novel “The Time of Strange Emperors” was adapted for the big screen in Gerardo Herrero’s 2012 film “Silence in the Snow.” It starred Feroz award-winning actor Juan Diego Botto (“I Don’t Like Driving”) and Goya winner Carmelo Gómez (“The Method”). The episodic is set in Cáceres, 1947 and follows protagonist Captain Arturo Andrade as he leads the investigation into the brutal murder of a young girl amidst the scorching summer heat of rural Extremadura. We need to create expectation and excitement through crucial characters, the hero, the villain and the victims, a touch of realism, suspense, introducing twists and turns, and keeping the rhythm and pace fast.”
