Malviviendo. A different serie

Yes, for a long time I haven't written something here. I've even forgotten that I had a blog. But well, my true first text will be about Malviviendo

Malviviendo (in english it would sound like 'living badly') is a serie which was made by a andalusian group of young people which had finished their studies and hadn't found a job. So, tired of being unemployed, they decided to create their own serie, without any kind of estimate (the first episode cost 40 euros only), with a few resources but with a lot of imagination and ideas.

They were conscious about the spanish audiovisual crisis. So, they tried to be new and original. As a special feature, their serie can be only seen on internet - not on Tv. As a consequence the serie have been able to be spread to other countries, especially in southamerican regions. Other characteristics are the way they deal with the image, the light and the matters. They pretend to be funny but critics too with ingenious scripts and storys about the everyday life.

In few words, the plot of the serie is the situations in which four friends are involved in. These four friends are:
"El Negro" a canarian youngster who has moved to Seville in order to study a degree course. But, as the first episode explains, when he just arrived there he met who will be his friend in the future "El Zurdo" ('The left-handed' - called like this because of his clumsiness) and he shows him what marihuana is, since he "works" as a drug-pusher. "El Negro" ends up putting aside his study and he started to work as a gorrilla (a person who helps somebody to park in exchange for money). "El Postilla" is a young men who combine two illness: kleptomania and narcolepsy. Yes, is a very strange mixture, but it really is -seeing how that boy gets away after stealing something in a supermarket and, in few seconds, falls asleep and crash into the ground is very funny. And the last is "El Kaki". An old soldier with a very bad temperament, who goes by wheelchair because of, he sais but there's another funny story, a fight when he was in prison.

So, maybe you are certan wondering if this serie is a little odd. Yes, somehow is strange because the serie is about a group of young people who seems not to have "correct" lives. But, what the serie try to capture the simple and modest life in a comical way. I think you have to see it if you want to understand me. So, I recommend you to watch it, not only for the interesting of the plot, but also because of the merit of these young people that with nothing else than their imagination and will (and hope too) have created a serie who has been a great succes throughout internet. Their work have been amazing. In my opinion, they are innovative and creative -and you know, the andalusian people have a gift, their speech is very funny.

They have made, apart from the whole serie (it has 10 episodes) several videoclips for well-known artists (by the way, they have also had the honor to rely with some well-known artists in some episodes like Jorge Cadaval - one of the humorous group "Los Morancos").

All their work can be seen in their own page www.malviviendo.es. There's no waste on this serie.
