What is Two Graves about?
Told over three episodes, the story centres on Isabel, bereft after her granddaughter vanishes, who decides to risk everything to uncover the truth – and seek revenge.
The official synopsis reads: “Two years after the disappearance of Verónica and Marta, two 16-year-old friends, the investigation is declared closed due to lack of evidence and suspects.
“The grandmother of one of the two girls, Isabel (Kiti Mánver), who has nothing to lose, decides to carry out an investigation beyond the law.
“Isabel will do whatever it takes to uncover the truth about what happened that night and what begins as the search for a culprit, soon becomes a story of revenge.”

Kiti Mánver (Broken Embraces, Verge of a Nervous Breakdown) leads the cast as hardy grandmother Isabel.
She’s joined by Álvaro Morte (The Wheel of Time) as Rafael and Hovik Keuchkerian (Assassin’s Creed, Anna) as Antonio.

In a statement released to Netflix, creator Agustín Martínez said: “Two Graves is a revenge story led by a character rarely seen at the heart of fiction, someone who could only find her place on a platform like Netflix: a grandmother willing to do whatever it takes to seek justice for the loss of her granddaughter.
