The official trailer of ‘La Unidad Kabul’ reflects how spectacular this production is: pursuits on foot, on horseback, in military vehicles, explosions, rescues to the limit, ambushes, the work against the clock of the Spanish Embassy to evacuate the maximum number of people… and the drama of lives cut short by the Taliban’s takeover in Afghanistan. A fast-paced original Movistar+ series created by Dani de la Torre and Alberto Marini, that will be released on Movistar Plus+ on May 18th.

The new instalment of the successful fiction had its wrap in Pakistan, where the 10 weeks of shooting ended. The team had been also shooting in locations in Almeria and Madrid. ‘La Unidad Kabul’  has had once again a production deployment that meets the level of this ambitious series, with a film crew made up of 300 artists and technicians. Around 130 actors and extras have taken part in the shooting. The spectacular action scenes have included 40 stuntmen, including 28 riders.

Nathalie Poza, Marian Álvarez, Michel Noher and Fariba Sheikan lead the cast, which also includes the performances by Mehdi Regragui, Shabnam Rahimi and Reyhane Noori, among others.

The second season of  ‘La Unidad’ has been granted two Iris Awards of the Spanish TV Academy (best fiction and best direction) as well as the Spanish Actors and Actresses Union awards for Nathalie Poza (best lead actress) and Yassmine Othman (best supporting actress).

Synopsis

In a new mission, several agents of La Unidad are in Afghanistan a few days before the Taliban’s seizure of Kabul and before Spain starts the evacuation of civilians and collaborators. Their objective is meeting an undercover agent who has information about a possible terrorist attack in Europe, but they will be caught by surprise by the conflicts between the mujaheddins, Taliban and ISIS K forces and they end up involved in a dangerous situation.
