The movie filmed in Malaga that has surprisingly become the number 1 worldwide on Netflix

Axarquía may need to designate Netflix as its honorary streaming platform. For the second time this year, a production filmed in the region has ranked number 1 in the world on the powerful American operator's most-watched list. At the end of August, the series 'Dos tumbas', with Carmen Mola's authors' signature, shattered the screen both within and outside our borders with a thriller about girls' disappearances set in Frigiliana. Now, a friendly and romantic movie, 'Mango', has topped the list of the most-watched non-English speaking feature films for two weeks with a story of overcoming challenges among the organic plantations of Vélez-Málaga.

Quietly, the Danish director of Iranian origin Mehdi Avaz has once again demonstrated his title as the king of European romantic comedy, captivating the international audience with the emotional tone he previously showcased in 'A Wonderful Life' (2023) and, particularly, 'In Tuscany' (2022), which explored a clash of cultures with an intense love story in the warm Italian lands. This same formula is transferred in 'Mango' to Axarquía, following a hotel chain executive who arrives in Málaga intending to persuade a compatriot, a retired lawyer turned struggling farmer, to convert his coastal plantation into a luxury resort.
