Gabriel Garcia Marquez was protective of his literary work, resisting film adaptations during his lifetime but his family later permitted a Netflix adaptation, respecting his legacy.
The production aimed to honor Marquez’s magical realism through a Spanish-language series set in Colombia, featuring a mainly Colombian cast, embodying the author's creation.
The author reflects on how the adaptation of Marquez's work in Colombia adds personal significance as he explores the process of building Macondo, the fictional setting.
Filming in Colombia, where Marquez is celebrated, the adaptation strives to embody the spirit of 'One Hundred Years of Solitude', acknowledging its deep cultural roots.
