Director: Gabe Ibáñez

Six years of silence surround Sergio, and a teenage girl may be the only person who can get him to finally speak.

What is Muted about?

Sergio hasn't uttered a word since a devastating night involving his parents shattered his family, and the years since have left him locked inside that silence. The series picks up as a teenage girl crosses paths with him and starts pulling at the details everyone else assumed were long settled, forcing old wounds and half-buried town secrets back into the open. As she gets closer to the truth, the show shifts between the present-day investigation and the fallout still rippling through everyone connected to that night, building a mystery less about proving what happened than about understanding why Sergio has never been able to say it out loud.

Cast & crew

Arón Piper plays Sergio, carrying much of the series through physical performance rather than dialogue, opposite Almudena Amor as the teenager determined to reach him. Cristina Kovani, Aitor Luna, Manu Ríos, Aria Bedmar, Ramiro Blas and Mikel Losada round out the surrounding cast of family and townspeople whose own accounts of that night don't quite line up.

Context & significance

Muted comes from director Gabe Ibáñez and arrived in 2023 as a Spanish crime mystery built around a 48-minute episode format. It holds a 5.6 rating on IMDb and leans into a slow-burn, small-town atmosphere where everyone seems to be protecting a version of events that benefits them, using Sergio's silence as the emotional center rather than a gimmick to be solved quickly.

Where & how to watch

Muted is streaming on K-Time with a free account login, and both a Farsi dub and Farsi subtitles are available so Persian-speaking viewers can follow its dialogue-driven mystery closely. The series page can be read without an account; only playback requires signing in.
