What We Think

'The Alcàsser Murders' is remarkably non-woke, sticking to its brutal true-crime roots and avoiding most modern ideological pitfalls. No box-ticking or moralizing here, just old-school storytelling and a look at media gone wild.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The docuseries sticks closely to recounting the real-life events of the Alcàsser murders, focusing on true-crime storytelling rather than inserting identity politics or modern ideological trends. If anything, it critiques media sensationalism more than pushing any agenda.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional cultural elements, including religion, family, and community responses, are depicted authentically and without derision. The series tends to reflect on Spanish society in the 1990s rather than attempt to rewrite or mock these cultural foundations.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the documentary is framed by modern sensibilities (especially regarding media ethics), it does not ridicule alternative worldviews or force ideological uniformity. There’s minimal editorializing, though some viewers may notice slight alignment with contemporary media skepticism.
