SkyShowtime is polishing up another original, this time a comedy out of Spain. Nails will follow four women from different backgrounds who regularly meet up in a local nail bar. Cameras are rolling on the series.
Federation Spain is on production duty, making the comedy in association with SkyShowtime and with the collaboration of Telemundo Studios. The series was created by Araceli Álvarez de Sotomayor. She also writes and directs.
The four female protagonists in Nails rebel against society’s expectations of them with consequences for themselves and family and friends.
“They will be shaken by a decision that will turn their lives upside down, leading to the spontaneous creation of ‘The Free Women’s Club’, a safe space and sisterhood intended to help other women solve their problems,” reads the logline.
