Netflix has shared details of a My Sad Dead screening held in the Buenos Aires neighbourhood that helped shape the series. The October 22 report describes an October 15 event at Piedrabuenarte, where residents joined cast and crew to watch the opening two episodes. Pablo Larraín’s limited series adapts stories by

Mariana Enriquez and follows Ema, a retired doctor able to see and speak with the dead. Much of its visual identity came from Piedrabuena, where apartment blocks, streets and the water tower became part of the story’s supernatural landscape. Netflix says local residents also appeared as extras during a shoot lasting

more than fifty days. Alejandra Flechner and Carolina Álvarez attended alongside community organisers and production representatives. The event returned the work to participants whose daily surroundings had become its setting. The series had already debuted on Netflix on September 24, following its San Sebastián

festival premiere; this report therefore concerns community involvement and production design, rather than announcing a new streaming release. Official source. Image credit: Netflix; Mercedes Morán with local extras in My Sad Dead.
