Berlín · Spain (2023)
A Money Heist prequel following the charming Berlin
Money can’t buy taste, but Berlín has always managed both. Before the Royal Mint, before the red jumpsuit, Andrés de Fonollosa was just a charming crook in his prime, chasing love affairs and one last unforgettable score.
This Money Heist prequel drops him in Paris with a brand new crew (hello, Michelle Jenner and Tristán Ulloa) plotting to steal 44 million euros in jewels from the city’s fanciest auction house, all silk scarves, wine and impossibly smooth talk.
Two familiar detectives, Itziar Ituño and Najwa Nimri, are hot on his trail, because some habits never change.
It is heist television at its most stylish: less about the vault, more about the swagger. And Berlín being Berlín, a second season later took the whole show to Seville for round two.
