Countdown
Synopsis
The episodes, which are self-contained, will start with a scene of a great impact in which someone is portrayed in imminent danger. Then some days, hours or minutes before the first scene-, the elite police unit headed by the agent Corso (Dani Martín) will start its investigative work, with an urgency which means that there is a limited time frame to solve the mystery. After the final countdown the first scene will appear again and the mystery is revealed. In the meanwhile, there is a great narrative tension and a fast rhythm which will be demonstrated by the filming of up to 45 sequences in just 50 minutes, the length of the episode.
