Siblings Marcos and Paula Noval (played by the breakout duo of Martiño Rivas and Carlota García) arrive after their parents’ mysterious disappearance. They quickly discover that this school is not just for privileged kids. Hidden in the woods are Nazi experiments, secret societies, a labyrinth of tunnels, a lake that hides bodies, and a gardener with a terrifying secret. el internado serie completa
