But Blanca, although she finds herself working in an environment where her disability is experienced as an obstacle, does not let herself be confined to an office and manages to demonstrate her value and her abilities.
Alongside the work challenges she then finds herself having to face the sentimental ones: contention between two men, Inspector Liguori, a colleague with many secrets, and Nanni, a young unconventional cook, must decide to whom to give his heart and his trust. To help her in these adventures her most trusted friends: the guide dog Linnaeus, a female bulldog who protects and comforts her in the most difficult moments and her friend Stella, a beautician with a very exuberant character.

Vanity Fair (23.11.2021)
“Blanca, RAI takes a risk and scores. With new and captivating visual language right from the opening credits and decidedly unconventional ideas for RAI1 – such as the use of a very saturated color palette and scenes cleverly orchestrated like the reconstruction of space in a soundstage as black as Blanca’s vision – the series hits the mark, thanks to the sensitivity of its theme and its unprecedented and decidedly original style”
