Desaparecida (lit. 'Missing') is a Spanish drama television series produced by Grupo Ganga for TVE. It originally aired on La 1 from 2007 to 2008.
Patricia Marcos (Beatriz Ayuso), a young woman from Blancaró (a fictional village close to Madrid) about to have her 18th birthday, disappears after asking her parents for allowance to go the neighbouring village's festival.[1][2][3] Patricia's parents, Lola (Luisa Martín) and Alfredo (Carlos Hipólito), face the disappearance of their daughter.[4] Lieutenant Bruno Sierra (Miguel Ángel Solá), an officer from the Central Operative Unit (UCO) is charged with leading the investigation of the whereabouts of Patricia.[4][5]
Produced by Grupo Ganga for TVE, it consisted of 13 episodes.[7] It began airing on La 1 on 3 October 2007.[8] The original broadcasting run ended on 29 January 2008.[8] Desaparecida sparked a spin-off, UCO, Unidad Central Operativa.[9]
The series and its spin-off UCO were collectively rebranded in Argentina as Bruno Sierra, el rostro de la ley for broadcasting on Canal 7 in 2009.[5]
