Netflix viewers left in tears over ‘heartbreaking’ drama series they’re urging others to watch

Warning: This article contains discussion of sexual assault which some readers may find distressing.

A Netflix series which has been described as 'heartbreaking' is being labelled as a 'must watch'.

Be prepared though as it's binge worthy and will have you glued to the screen.

The Netflix series starts off with a pretty bold scene as we watch a 17-year-old named Alma attach a banner to the front of her school which reads: "Beware! A rapist is in there!"

Raising Voice has already received great reviews. (Netflix)

Titled Raising Voices, the Spanish series stars Nicole Wallace, Clara Galle, and Aïcha Villaverde.

The storyline is based on the novel Ni Una Más by author Miguel Sáez Carral, and follows Alma (played by Wallace) who is about to finish high school, along with her best friends Greta (Galle) and Nata (Villaverde).

The trio are besties and have known each other since they were small, and now spend their time partying and gossiping like most teen girls do.

Yet after Alma reports a sexual assault to the police, it changes everything and she faces difficult conversations and worries over being heard.

The series traces her life leading up to the night in question and the aftermath of her accusation, and it's had so many viewers hooked that it's already been labelled as 'phenomenal'.

Writing on Twitter/X, one viewer wrote: "Raising Voices on Netflix is so good it had me gasping and crying."

Another posted: "If you still haven’t watched Ni Una Más/Raising Voices on Netflix this is your sign to watch it.

"This show is truly the most realistic representation of our society and what all the women are going through on a daily basis, trust me and give it a try. The cast did a phenomenal job."

The series focuses on three best friends and how life is changed after one is sexually assaulted. (Netflix)

Writing on Facebook, one person posted: "Absolutely loved this, it didn't go the way I thought it would. I cried at the end."

One person who had just finished the series shared on Twitter/X: "Just finished watched Ni Una Más (Raising Voices) on Netflix. A heartbreaking story about sexual assault and speaking up.

"It was raw and honest."

Raising Voices is available to watch on Netflix now.
