A new monthly film drop for Spanish viewers
Netflix members in Spain can now browse a dedicated section filled with films and documentaries chosen by the independent streamer Filmin. The first batch, called October Mysteries, landed on 1 October 2026 and ties into the Halloween season. Each month a new set of ten titles arrives on the first day, while the previous collection stays available for an extra month.
How the partnership works
The agreement lets Filmin’s editorial picks reach a much larger audience while Netflix adds more variety without extra cost to existing plans. Themes will shift with the calendar, covering everything from seasonal mysteries to award-season highlights. Spanish subscribers simply open the app or site and head to the new collection section to start watching.
What the partners said
"We deeply admire Filmin's commitment to film and documentaries. They've built a very close relationship with a discerning, specialized audience, while at Netflix we work every day with the focus of entertaining the world's largest and most diverse audience. That combination makes us perfect partners: together we can offer our audience even more films and documentaries to enjoy handpicked by Filmin's editorial team," said Diego Ávalos, Netflix’s VP of Content for Spain, Portugal and Turkey.
"The fact that the world's largest streaming service has taken notice of us represents enormous recognition of the nearly 20 years of work and love for cinema behind our project," said Juan Carlos Tous, CEO and founder of Filmin. "Our goal is to bring the cinema we're passionate about to the widest possible audience, and this alliance with Netflix gives us a unique opportunity to achieve that."
We think this kind of curation could appeal to anyone who wants more hand-picked independent films alongside Netflix’s bigger releases. For the latest on UK streaming choices head to our TV hub.
