Plot

Pudor is about intimacy, about the desires, obsessions, secrets and fears that we keep hidden, even from those we love most.

Sinekatalog’s take

A drama about intimacy, desires, obsessions and fears that people hide even from those they love most. Ulloa treats private lives with restraint and some daring. A thoughtful, adult pick for viewers who enjoy sensitive Spanish relationship dramas.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
