Muted (Spanish: El silencio, lit.'The Silence') is a Spanish psychological thriller television series created by Aitor Gabilondo starring Arón Piper.

Plot[edit]

Set in Bilbao, the show revolves around Sergio Ciscar, who has recently been released from detention. He has spent six years in detention for parricide and is now under the secret watch of a young psychiatrist, Ana Dussuel, and her team. She loves him secretly and she also receives help from Marta, a girl obsessed with Sergio.

Sergio desperately tries to find his younger sister, who was the only one who treated him nicely.

During the course of the series, it’s discovered that Sergio is a genius and his mother was experimenting on him without his father's consent/knowledge.

Towards the end we find out that Sergio is unstable and was on drugs and lashed out and pushed his parents over.
