The premiere of season two of Apple’s Spanish-language crime drama Women in Blue (Las Azules) is just a few weeks away, and Apple TV has released a trailer promoting the upcoming run. The series, which is inspired by true events, premiered two years ago for a freshman 10-episode run. Season two kicks off on August 12.
The Spanish-language crime drama tells the story of “four women who defy the ultraconservative norms of the time and join Mexico’s first female police force, only to discover that their squad is a publicity stunt to distract the media from a brutal serial killer,” says Apple TV’s description of the series.
The trailer for the show’s second season sees the Azules investigating a murder tied to the 1968 student massacre.
“Women in Blue” (“Las Azules”) season two will follow María (Bárbara Mori), now promoted to lieutenant, as she finds herself torn between the rules she’s sworn to uphold and a relentless pull toward the truth when the body of a student activist is discovered, and the Azules are pulled into an investigation that reaches back to the student massacre of 1968. Before they can make sense of what they’ve found, the body of a person connected to that brutal chapter of history is unearthed, sending shock waves through the department. Someone is delivering justice straight to the police’s door, and the Azules are the department’s last hope of stopping the killer. As María, Valentina (Natalia Téllez), Gabina (Amorita Rasgado) and Ángeles (Ximena Sariñana) fight battles both inside and outside the precinct, buried truths rise to the surface and they’re forced to confront an uncomfortable question: in a system plagued with corruption, what is the cost of fighting for their ideals?
