The first season of the woman prisoned themed television series Vis a Vis originally aired on Antena 3 in Spain.[1] The pilot episode was broadcast on April 20, 2015. The season consisted of eleven episodes; the first five episodes aired on Mondays at 10 pm and the final six aired on Thursdays at the same timeslot.[2]
The season was executive produced by Globomedia and was created by Álex Pina, Daniel Écija, Iván Escobar and Esther Martínez Lobato.
The season features the fictional private women's correctional prison Cruz del Sur a Madrid. The story revolves around Macarena (Maggie Civantos), who was sentenced to seven years in prison for fraud.[3] Her life be turned upside down when she meets the inmates and prison employees, who she share her home for seven years. She then meet several characters: The inmates, Zulema (Najwa Nimri), Saray (Alba Flores), Rizos (Berta Vázquez), Soledad (María Isabel Díaz Lago), Anabel (Inma Cuevas), Tere (Marta Aledo), Antonia (Laura Baena) among others as well as the prison employees: Fabio (Roberto Enríquez), Dr. Sandoval (Ramiro Blas ), Miranda (Cristina Plazas), Palacios (Alberto Velasco) and Valbuena (Harlys Becerra).
The season received generally positive reviews from critics who at first compared it to Netflix's popular women's prison drama, Orange Is the New Black, before the show's broadcast. However, after its initial episode, it was apparent that the two shows belong to different genres, with Vis a Vis more of a thrilling crime drama compared to Orange Is the New Black's Comedy Drama. The show's female cast won the Ondas Awards for Best Female Performance in Fiction, two wins and four nominations in Spanish Actors Union Awards, and four nominations at the Iris Awards, among others.[4]
