Durant el confinament i passada la urgència d les primeres setmanes, vaig decidir q aquell tancament només podria sobreviure si consumia molta cultura (i, és clar, feia pa). Així doncs,per a mi,el confinament va anar lligat a molt teatre, molts concerts en viu i moltes sèries 🎥
També vaig decidir q ja n'hi havia prou d testosterona audiovisual i q calia cercar (sí, cal fer-ho pq no està massa accessible) productes q estiguéssin protagonitzats, escrits, dirigits i/o produïts x dones. Vaig tard però aquí va la llista d sèries q vaig veure aquell temps 🎥
