It's always the same: at Christmas, on Valentine's Day... On this kind of special dates that we love to lie on the couch and have a good Netlflix marathon, we always end up watching the same movies and series. On Valentine's Day, for example, Love Actually, Noah's diary, Letters to Juliet, Titanic... That's why today in Lavani we want to unveil the series that show the other side of love, with complicated stories and even a little dark side with unexpected twists and ends, but above all not as cloying as the typical series and movies we usually watch.
YOU
It's been a long time since Gossip Girl and in this series we have found one of its main characters in a totally different role. In this series, our beloved (or not so beloved) Dan Humpfrey from Gossip Girl plays Joe, a New York librarian who falls in love with a client. That love turns into an unhealthy obsession and becomes a "stalker", showing us a hidden and not pretty side of love. Add this psychological thriller to your list this Valentine's Day, you can't miss it!
BABY
Based on a true story that happened in Rome a few years ago, the series Baby has become very popular lately on Netflix. It tells the story of Chiara and Ludovica, two girls who go to a private high school in that city and who discover at their young age the worst side of love. It has it all: teenage love, tricks, strategies, scandals and lots of plot twists. 100% sure to leave you more than hooked!
SEX EDUCATION
A very, very recent series that released its second season earlier this year. What we like most about it is the explosive mix of family stories, struggles against stereotypes, self-exploration, experimentation and innovation, and new formulas for love. It talks about taboo subjects without any taboos and 100% that you will find a character or situation that you identify with, breaking down the barrier between series and reality and making you can't take your eyes off the screen.
ELITE
I'm sure most of you already know it. A "made in Spain" that has gone around the world. The formula of this series with love of all kinds, tension, drama, ambitions and power has been the key that has led this series to be one of the favorites around the world and has led it to have a resounding success.
Grab a good handful of popcorn and get ready! This Valentine's Day you're going to be stacked with Netflix marathons.
