## Synopsis

800 Meters (2022) is a Spanish documentary miniseries produced by Bambú Producciones and distributed on Netflix. Across three episodes of roughly fifty-two minutes each, it returns to the two terrorist attacks that struck Spain in 2017, carried out by young men from within the community where they lived. Rather than dramatizing the events, the series is built around investigation: it follows the questions that drive the inquiry, asking how such violence could arise among people who seemed ordinary to those around them. Its engine is the search for explanation, moving through the places, relationships and warning signs that surrounded the perpetrators and the authorities who might have noticed them. The tone is sober, grave and unflinching, with the weight of a national tragedy foregrounded over spectacle. Its emotional register is one of unease and sorrow, and its handling of violent footage and real aftermath is graphic enough to be disturbing. Viewers drawn to investigative true crime and serious social inquiry will find a kindred seriousness in The Jinx and Making a Murderer, while fans of The Night Of will recognize its interest in how a community's blind spots shape a crime. As a limited series, it offers a single, concentrated look at a traumatic moment in recent Spanish history.
