Si nos dejan (Season 1)

Si nos dejan (2021) is a Mexican family drama you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Carlos Cock. Alicia Montiel is fifty, has three children, and is married to Sergio Carranza — one of Mexico's most recognisable TV journalists. Then she finds out he has been with a co-worker on his show for three years.

Alicia files for divorce and discovers almost immediately how much of her daily life she had outsourced to a marriage she thought was solid. The series is less interested in the affair than in what follows: figuring out who you are at fifty outside of a role you built everything around, dealing with the social pressure to stay, and the inconvenient presence of Martín Peña — a younger journalist, once Sergio's rival, who is very much around. Mayrín Villanueva plays Alicia with enough spine that you believe her when she stops wavering. Stream Si nos dejan online on iFILM.
