One Hundred Years of Solitude
One Hundred Years of Solitude
Gabriel García Márquez’s Nobel prize-winning novel gets a stunning series adaptation on Netflix, unspooling the sweeping saga of four generations of the Buendía family across 18 episodes while capturing the book’s magical realism and timeless tale of love and longing, power and corruption, destiny and legacy.
The Story: Married against their parents’ wishes, cousins José Arcadio Buendía and Úrsula Iguarán leave their village in search of a new home, and are accompanied by friends and adventurers. Together they found a utopian town on the banks of a river, which they baptize Macondo. Across several generations, they face madness, war, love and loss, and the fear of a terrible curse that could condemn them to one hundred years of solitude. Watch the trailer.
