The Plot of the Series
Amaya Martin, a young girl from a lovely family, attends the Three Wise Men parade, which is supposed to provide the family with memories for the years to come.
The family, in contrast, never expected to live through such a horrible day after Amaya vanished during the celebration. In parallel with inspector Millan, Miren, as a trainee journalist, investigates Amaya’s disappearance.
Many people have lost hope as time passes and assume the girl died in secret. On the other hand, Miren is determined to find the girl using Amaya’s clues and the support of her journalist friend Eduardo with the intention of reuniting the family.
As a result, the journalist may recollect past experiences she wishes she hadn’t remembered.
Like many of Javier Castillo’s writings, The Snow Girl is suspenseful. To solve a mystery, the author switches between two timelines. It’s an unexpected writing style, and several viewers may initially feel overwhelmed.
You can’t tell if you’re in the present or the past at any time. Nonetheless, they are only first impressions when unfamiliar with the characters. Later story twists expose the reasons for the protagonists’ actions and the author’s intentions.

Trailer
We see a young child sobbing in a yellow raincoat in the teaser, accompanied by overhead shots of a parade. Like any other family, the girl’s parents wonder why they had to go through this terrible tragedy and query the authorities about their findings.
As the search for Amaya continues, questions such as “How long till we find her?” and “Why are they doing this to us?” are raised. Finally, the available clues become thin as a voice asks, “But you have clues, right? The tape, the room.”
While the search for the kid continues amid the continual shouts of “Amaya!”, there appears to be little hope, and the parents are left with the unsettling possibility that their daughter may have died.
