Women in Blue (Seasons 1–2)

Women in Blue (Las azules, 2024) is a Mexican crime drama from Apple TV+ that you can watch online on iFILM. Set in Mexico City in 1971, it follows four women who push back against a deeply conservative society to pull on a uniform and join the country's first female police corps.

The catch lands fast. The unit was never meant to fight crime — it's a photo op, dreamed up to steer the press away from a killer strangling young women across the capital. The recruits were hired to smile for the cameras. As the victims pile up and the male detectives stall, the four of them quietly strike a pact to track the murderer down themselves.

Drawing on real cases from the era and on the actual story of Mexico's earliest policewomen, the series treats that history as a springboard rather than a transcript. Bárbara Mori, Ximena Sariñana, Natalia Téllez and Amorita Rasgado lead the cast. What gives it bite is how the whodunit is inseparable from a question about a woman's right to her own work and voice. A strong pick for fans of period thrillers with something to say. Stream Women in Blue (2024) online on iFILM.
