The Series is based on real events, which I was not aware of (well, I had some knowledge of the political events in Chile in 1973, but not of the role of the Finnish Embassy), but the depiction is largely as a ball into a single goal - it is known at present that Allende´s regime was not too progressive either, with several gross mistakes in several areas...
Anyway, the Finns and Chileans have jointly created an interesting work to follow, and the leading performances are good and the Spanish they speak sounds decent in my ears (true, when visible, Mikael Persbrandt as Harald Edelstam steals the show). In my opinion, the true events hold the run of events in a plausible manner, with leftist sympathies stressed not distractingly, but still is somehow lacked the depth as in e.g. Argo or some other films or series where there role of an embassy alternates under turbulent times.
