A NETFLIX SERIES

SIX YEARS AFTER AMAYA'S DISAPPEARANCE

My little girl.

Play it again.

Play it again.

I know you're in shock.

But I need to ask you if you're sure it's Amaya in the video.

Were you aware today's… her birthday?

Yes. I saw it in the report.

So, how long will it take you to find her?

It's premature to make conclusions concerning her whereabouts.

But you must have some sort of clue.

Like this tape or who sent it.

Right now the lab is analyzing the tape's envelope for any evidence.

Belén.

I've missed six years of her life already.

But what do they want?

Why are they doing this to us?

This person, whoever it is, hasn't attempted to contact you.

They haven't asked for money either.

We believe it might be, um…

might be a proof of life.

A-- A proof of life?

Who uses VHS these days?

The judicial inquiry is still top secret.

So please do not publish anything. Very important.

No more people dying.

It wasn't my fault.

You're listening to Radio Five,

with a national news bulletin.

The New Year hasn't brought an end to gender-based violence.

A 45-year-old woman was found by authorities having been choked to death.

Authorities suspect that she died at the hands of her 54-year-old husband

after what appears to be an argument.

The Twelfth Night has claimed its first victim of this New Year.

Authorities are asking anyone with information to contact them--

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll give them back to you now. Thanks.

Good morning.

Uh, all right. Now, does anyone know where the remote for the TV is?

No.

Okay. So, all of you know

who Amaya Martín is. The girl who went missing, right?

Yes.

As future journalists,

I'm sure you have picked up on the way media reports the news.

Taking advantage of advertising.

Yeah, that's true. Everyone needs to make a living, right?

But focus here, all right?

Who's able to tell me exactly when she disappeared?

During the parade.

At 6:45 p.m.

AMAYA - PARENTS - FAMILY

Be very specific.

When reporting this kind of thing, you need to be specific.

People like this.

All right. How old is the little girl? Who knows?

Five years old.

She'll be six on 25th April.

Ah, here it is.

According to sources close to the investigation

of the disappearance of Amaya Martín,

it is apparently a close friend of the family

who has been called in for questioning.

That's all the information we have at this time…

And now the real circus begins.

The parents have been informed of the situation

and are cooperating with police.

The authorities are asking anyone with more information to contact--

Thanks.

What's your relation to Amaya Martín, and when's the last time you saw her?

She is the daughter of my best friend, and they are… they're like family.

And I don't know. We see each other quite often.

Why didn't you mention you had a criminal record when we spoke with you?

Well, shit, because I knew this would happen.

That accusation has been haunting me for years.

You've read the report, right? You're all aware of what happened.

I haven't sexually assaulted anyone.

Where were you the evening of the fifth?

Well, I was with my family.

We went to the parade because my daughter really wanted to go.

There were people there. People who saw us.

You leave your family at any point?

-What? -Your family.

Were you with them the whole time?

Yeah, well, at one point I, uh…

I went to get an umbrella because it started raining.

That was it.

An umbrella.

Yes, an umbrella for my family. Am I being arrested for that?

No.

So you went home to get an umbrella. Anybody see you?

No, no. No, I didn't go to my house. I bought the umbrella at a store.

How long did it take you to get to the store and back?

Not sure.

-Twenty minutes, I guess? -That area is full of stores.

Did it take you 20 minutes to find the perfect umbrella?

Everything was closed that day.

What time did you leave your family?

Well, it was… I guess like, uh,

6:30 maybe? Around then?

Here's the map.

Please mark the exact spot from which you watched the parade.

Over here, let's see.

Uh, right here. On Santa Isabel Street.

-So, now am I done? -Where's David?

-Calm down. -I won't calm down!

-Where the hell is he? -Wait in the waiting room!

-You can't be on this floor. -That son of a bitch has her!

-Where is he? I want to see him! -Calm down.

-Sir, calm down! -Stay back, sir!

-Calm down, sir! -What's happening?

-Enough. -Where is my daughter?

-Calm down. -Did he hurt her?

-What has he done? -Calm down.

-Rosa! -Hold him back!

-Hold him back! -Where is David? Where is he?

Stay back! Calm down!

-Calm down, please! -Where is he?

-Let's get him outta here. -Álvaro, I don't know.

He knows something. You know something!

-He doesn't. Álvaro, please. -You know something!

-Please. -Rosa!

-Please. -Rosa!

Ana…

Yeah. Uh-huh.

I really appreciate it.

Do you want me to get a couple of free tickets for the football game?

Well, I'll tell the newspaper to get them.

No, no. Thank you. All right, see you later.

I'm headed to the office. A big tip from the police came in just now.

David Luque was at the parade?

Uh-huh.

You think he had enough time to kidnap the girl?

It's possible.

He's here with his family watching the parade.

At 6:30, he leaves his family.

Amaya disappears from Constitution Square at 6:45 in the evening.

How far away is this spot from that one?

About 400 meters?

350 meters apart,

according to the app.

The time needed for Luque to go from Santa Isabel Street

to where the girl disappeared from would be around five minutes.

And now add three extra minutes.

Or four. There were a lot of people that day.

It would take eight or nine minutes.

And what time did Luque say he left his family?

6:30, apparently.

Ten minutes would be enough to get to Constitution Square and take Amaya.

The girl gets separated from her parents. She looks up and sees a familiar face,

Luque.

He leads her to the doorway and takes her raincoat off.

It doesn't make sense.

If he came back with his family at 7:00,

he only had 15 minutes to grab the girl, didn't he?

But then what?

-What did he do with her? -He hid her probably.

Where, though?

He owns a removal company.

He could have hid her in one of the trucks.

We need to check the CCTV of the area

to see if any of Luque's vans were parked there.

If he did it, he didn't do it alone. Not enough time to take the girl

and come back with his family. Impossible.

-And what about the neighbor? -What about her?

She mentioned two people coming in.

Hmm.

Better show her a picture of Luque. See if she recognizes him.

And request a search warrant. We're going after him.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Yes, switch it on and off again. I get it.

Okay, honey. Okay, see you later.

Your name is Miren, right?

Yes.

And I'm sorry for what happened yesterday.

Let's get this straight, Miren.

I am in charge. You do as you're told.

And If you don't, then you'll be out. Understood?

Yesterday I was just about to have you expelled,

but Eduardo here intervened on your behalf.

It looks like you've managed to make friends with the right guy.

-You're smart, that's for sure. -I should thank you, I guess.

So, I want you to help Eduardo with the girl's case.

Listen, Eduardo, if she messes up one more time, it'll be your fault.

She won't work in an editorial again.

-Understood? -Right. I got it, Paco.

Anything on David Luque?

My contact inside the police told me that he was sentenced in 1983

because of a sexual assault against a minor.

-How old was the girl? -Thirteen.

Goddammit.

You think he did it, though?

He could have.

He had enough time to take her and hide her.

But did he do it?

Maybe.

But I'm not completely sure right now.

It seems like he cared about her.

Honestly.

Some things can't be faked.

I want a profile

on David Luque for the three o'clock web update, okay?

I want all of our readers to know David Luque inside and out.

-So where do we begin? -At the very beginning.

I know this guy at the courthouse who owes me a favor.

He's got some information about the Luque case.

Got it. Copy.

Unit 91 for unit 93.

Hey, what's wrong, honey?

Don't worry. It's all right. Come on, let's go with Mom.

Yeah, come on.

You three search the bedrooms.

-Got it. -Yes, sir.

-Step aside, please. -Can we get a statement?

The police investigation is focused on the residence of David Luque,

as well as his removal business.

-Officers are trying to determine… -Laura.

-Yes? -Talk to the manager.

With every moment that passes, her parents are getting more distraught.

This has been an understandably taxing ordeal for the family.

FORENSIC POLICE

-How you doing, Mario? -Hey, Millán.

Chaparro.

-What's happening? -No sign of the girl, Belén.

The guys watching the balloon seller called.

Something's fishy.

COURTS

It's just been a while, and I'd like to discuss some things with you…

INCOMING CALL - MOM

-Hi, Mom. I can't really talk right now. -Hi, Miren. I'll be quick.

-I wanted to check you were all right. -I am.

I wrote an article yesterday about Amaya, the missing girl.

Really?

Honey, I'm worried about you.

Could you please speak to your boss and ask for less tragic stories?

You've got enough to deal with already, don't you think?

Did you go to your thing yesterday?

Yeah.

-Everything okay? -Yes, Mom. Don't worry.

I'm fine. Really.

If your work is too much now, then you should stop.

Please.

Okay, but I really want to focus on the missing girl.

I need to do this.

Okay, honey.

But be careful.

Can you all sit down, please?

Have you talked to Detective Millán?

Uh…

No, Mom. I gotta go now. Okay?

I'll call you when I can.

Miren.

-What's that number? -Pedro López.

The detective in charge of David Luque's case in 1983.

Detective Pedro López?

Nah. No more.

You have the cash?

I do. And you? Do you have the information?

Luque's case happened almost 30 years ago.

And how were you allowed to just take the file from the archives?

I keep a copy of everything.

As a souvenir.

Miren check this out.

SEXUAL ASSAULT AGAINST A MINOR

Girlfriend?

Uh, one of my students.

How about a drink, baby?

It's on me.

No.

Let's see.

He reported David Luque.

It was the father of the girl.

They were neighbors.

He went ape shit when he found out

that his daughter had been banging the whole neighborhood.

That girl was a little whore.

A pretty piece of ass.

You remind me of her.

-What's your fucking problem? -You're a fucking asshole!

Hey, hey, hey!

Hey now, stop pushing her! Stop it!

-Stop pushing her! We're leaving! -I'll get you.

-Stay there. -This isn't over!

What the hell?

I know why you were fired.

Yeah, 'cause you took out your pistol at a brothel. I'm aware.

Manly way to get free drinks, I guess.

You so much as look at that girl again, I'll make you famous.

Is that what you want?

I'm guessing not.

Appreciate this.

Come on. Let's go.

Don't look.

Don't worry.

Here.

I don't need your protection!

Close the door. It's cold out there.

Why'd you call us?

Been watching the balloon guy for hours.

This morning someone lent him a van, but he hasn't come out.

-Does he live alone? -It seems so.

Didn't he say he had a daughter?

We're stocked up with snacks.

We'll have to wait.

How about we get some drinks,

play some cards, have a party?

-What else, dude? -Shh.

What's he got?

-How about we check it out? -Wait.

Come on.

Freeze!

-Freeze. Don't move! Freeze! -Freeze!

Don't move!

Let me go!

I haven't done anything! I haven't done anything, I swear!

Why were you in a hurry then?

I haven't done anything this time! I swear to God!

-What's in the box? -They just paid me to deliver it!

I swear to God!

I just needed the money!

Please, detective! Please!

I haven't done anything!

I swear to you! I swear!

Oh my God!

What the fuck? It's a fucking…

What the hell is this?

-Answer her. -Where'd you hide the little girl?

I don't know anything about any girl! I promise, detective, please!

I swear to God!

Take him to the station.

Son of a bitch.

Why?

Why'd you let her go?

Honey.

Why'd you let her go?

I can't.

Tell me why you let her go.

Álvaro.

Álvaro!

No.

What was so important?

Huh? What was so important that you let her go?

Why can't you explain it to me?

Please, Ana.

There were so many people out there, Álvaro.

What the hell were you thinking?

Why would you let go of a little kid in a situation like that?

-Tell me why. -You're never here, Ana.

What?

You're never here.

Never.

I take care of Amaya. Of the house.

-Don't say that. -No, no, it's on me to do it.

-Don't say that now. -It's my job to do it all.

-You're always working and I'm here. -You think I'm only concerned with work?

-You work. I'm here. Work's your priority. -My priorities are here!

-Ana, it is. It is. Admit it. -My daughter and you!

Tell me the name of her favorite show.

-Huh? -Really?

Yeah, really. What is it?

What is her favorite cereal?

Tell me.

Ana.

-What's her favorite cereal? -I know what her favorite cereal is.

Yeah, of course you know. What's her favorite song? Huh?

What's her favorite song? We sing it every morning on the way to school.

In the car every morning, we sing it. We have three songs.

One is her favorite. Which one? Which one is her favorite song?

-Stop it! That's enough! -Come on tell me.

Stop it!

I'm sorry. Ana.

I'm sorry.

Forgive me.

-I'm sorry. -I'm sorry.

I love you.

-Forgive me. -I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, baby.

David Luque was 18.

She was 13.

A five-year age gap.

I mean, hooking up with your neighbor when you're a kid is one thing,

but kidnapping a girl is another.

Is that the same profile to you?

Uh, my opinion doesn't really matter. It's what's in the report.

Tell me the name of the girl.

The one in '83.

-She was a minor. Name's missing. -It's there.

Have a look at the doctor's report at the end.

Rosa Márquez.

Sounds familiar.

-I don't know why. -I met her yesterday.

Luque's wife.

They ended up together.

They've lived 30 years together.

Did she really marry her rapist?

Well, Miren, it doesn't prove anything.

We have only what's written in the report there.

Don't forget that.

We work with the facts.

Then we'd better interview Rosa Luque.

No.

We already have more than we need for the article.

-That's fine but, um-- -I'll take care of it.

Eduardo.

What if Luque is innocent?

The police could be wasting time instead of looking for Amaya.

I'll get my things and go. Okay?

Oh my God, Sergio.

I just completely forgot about it.

Yeah.

Yeah, I know it's been a long time since we've seen your sister,

but I just can't do it today.

Yeah.

Yeah, I promise I'll go out more, but today won't be the day.

Make sure all of this goes away.

You can go.

Are you sure?

Okay.

Why don't we order some food and just watch a movie later tonight?

And just take it easy.

Uh, no. No, all I've had today is coffee this morning.

-Chaparro says hi. -Sergi!

Sergi says hi, and he wants to see you soon.

Okay, I'll see you in just a little bit. Bye, love.

Belén, Juancho has nothing to do with the girl.

He got nervous because he doesn't only sell hash and balloons.

On top of that, the idiot is also trafficking exotic animals.

Anything else?

Yeah. We have to release Luque because we don't have any evidence against him.

What do you want? It's a direct order.

Consider it done.

I'll get it done.

Mm. Mm. Yes.

How much do you think that lawyer gets paid?

That type of suit and shoes?

Gotta be more than us, right?

One of the top firms in the country rushes to get a lawyer over here

to defend the owner of a removal company. It's a bit weird, isn't it, Chaparro?

Do you have David Luque's accounts?

Yeah. His house is paid for.

He paid off his mortgage a couple of years ago.

And look at that yacht our friend bought.

Not too bad.

He sold it after the crisis, and the warehouse is also his.

How can he have all that cash flow?

Wife doesn't work, and a removal company can't have that much cash flowing into it.

Yeah, but they rent an apartment.

They what?

His wife has an apartment they used to rent.

-And is it empty? -Mm-hmm.

Why the hell hasn't it been on our radar?

Well, because his name isn't on the lease.

Hi.

Is your mom home?

You were there when we were hanging flyers.

You almost hit my dad.

Well, it was a misunderstanding.

Sorry, I can't help you right now.

I just want to ask you some questions.

I won't publish anything that you don't want me to.

Our lawyer told us not to talk to the press.

I think your dad is innocent.

Can you help me prove it, please?

We can't talk out here.

The worst part after a sexual assault…

is the fear.

At the beginning,

you feel the fear of being alone with a man.

Then the fear of being in a crowd.

And of leaving your house.

Of driving.

The worst part of all is the fear.

TREBOL BUILDING

I don't mind showing you the apartment.

I'm so tired.

We have nothing to hide.

Thank you for this.

We used to rent it, but with the market the way it is now,

we want to sell it.

My husband comes over sometimes to paint the walls and spruce the place up.

I'll have you stay here, please.

Eva, take a look around here.

It's impossible that my dad hurt Amaya.

She's like a niece to him.

She's like his daughter.

Besides, he's incapable of hurting anyone.

They're making up this story, dammit!

The removal company is your dad's only business?

Sometimes he works on other things.

But how does that make any difference?

It's nothing. Take it easy.

Let me show you this.

I think she's too high, Dad.

You gave her way too much.

Take her clothes off.

Shh, shh. Don't worry. It's okay.

That's it. That's it.

Easy now.

Come on, hurry up.

The bra too.

Just relax. It's okay.

It's okay.

What is this?

-Please. Please. -Is that my son Samuel?

-Come on now. -No.

-David? Oh, God. -You need to leave.

Detective, something over here.

It has to be here.

You're gonna write everything, right?

Of course. I promise.

Amaya has spent her life with us.

She used to play with my sister for hours.

This is a fucking nightmare, I'm telling you.

Arturo, call the judge.

-We need forensics right now. -Copy that.

Son of a bitch.

-Hello? -Samuel.

Mom? What's going on?

What's going on? I don't understand this.

What? Hey, Mom, calm down, all right? Just calm down.

What have you done, Samuel?

What have you both done?

-What are you talking about, Mom? -Oh my God.

I'm at Granny's house with the police.

Tell me it's not true, please. Tell me it's not true.

What have you done, Samuel?

Tell me you didn't do anything to Amaya.

Please tell me you didn't.

You all right?

Samuel, what's wrong?

-Samuel, I don't know what's going on. -Shut up!

I knew it. Fuck. Fuck!

-I knew it. I knew it. -Samuel.

-I knew it. I knew it. -Samuel.

-Calm down. -God. I knew it.

-Samuel. Samuel, talk to me. -I knew it. I knew it.

Hey, talk to me. Just take it easy. Just relax.

Samuel, relax.

We didn't do anything to Amaya, I promise.

No!

No!

Call the police!

Oh my God!

-Is he dead? -Call the police.

What happened?

Is he still breathing?

-Quick! Does anyone know CPR? -Oh God, this is awful!

SIX YEARS AFTER AMAYA'S DISAPPEARANCE

Ana. Wait.

POLICE HEADQUARTERS

I don't get it.

Why did they send that video?

Why now?

I don't know, but I don't care.

Amaya is alive.

Right

That's what matters.

How are you?

I miss us.

They told me you got promoted.

I'm happy for you.

Álvaro, this doesn't change anything.

You and I have nothing to talk about.

MÁLAGA - SUR - MISSING
