The Law According to Lidia Poët (La legge di Lidia Poët) is a Italian mystery series starring Matilda De Angelis. It will be released on Netflix on February 15, 2023.
Lidia Poët is an attorney, not a writer like Jessica Fletcher, but she is like her because they boty have something in common: a series and a mystery to be solved. No, they aren’t like Murder She Wrote and La Legge di Lidia Poët, but surely, if you liked the Miss Fletcher series, you will be delighted by this other series.
About the Series
Six episodes to wander in the legal mysteries that this girl handles with lots of guts and personality.
This is a series that has an elaborate production, which does an excellent job in historical recreation but does not focus solely on that: It is a series that is more a mystery series than a historic recreation, but the atmosphere, wardrobe… The series has humor but is not stupid, here they know how to win overa n audience who loves these stories but the visual quality and the screenplay are good enough to let it sail through with flying colors.
It has evertything going for it and also (this is the most important part): a star character that is funny and very strong.
A well-done, intelligent series with great quality.
We recommend this as a lover of mystery and crime series, with a criteria of quality, screenplay and settings.
Storyline
In late 19th-century Turin, the young Lidia Poët, fights against everything and everyone to get what is rightfully hers: to be enrolled in the official register of lawyers. A profession, at the time, reserved exclusively for men. Nevertheless, nothing could stop her dream of becoming the first female lawyer in Italy.
