Like so many Spaniards, the Alcántaras emigrated to Madrid from their hometown in La Mancha, Sagrillas, in the 1950s. Through the life of the Alcántara family, ‘Cuéntame’ reflects some of the most notable events in our recent history and the changes that Spaniards experienced in their lives. Everything that is human and excites us has a place in the most awarded series on Spanish television.
