Five non-English shows to binge-watch on Netflix this March
Some will make you cry, some will disturb you to the core, but you can bet they will all leave you in awe

There is quite a lot going on in Netflix. As the streaming channel is gradually moving towards global dominance, Netflix is bringing on board over 100 non-English language shows. According to Netflix International Originals former VP Erik Barmack, these shows come from all over the globe including Asia, South Africa, Mexico, Spain, India, and almost half of Europe.
While speaking to IndieWire at the Scripted conference in Los Angeles last year, Barmack had stated, "A hundred isn’t really a particularly magic number. It would give us pretty robust slate in Latin America, Europe and then starting a slate in India, the Middle East, and other parts of Asia."

He continued, "There’s something fundamentally off about the math. It can’t possibly be the case that the U.S. people in Hollywood and London are somehow 20, sometimes 30 times better at telling stories. When we look back at this time, five years from now, no one thinks that this should hold up."

For example, 'Most Beautiful Thing' (Portuguese: 'Coisa Mais Linda') is an upcoming Brazilian period drama web television series that is set to premiere on Netflix on March 22. Considering Barmack's words, here are five foreign language shows that you can totally binge watch in March on Netflix:
