Dark conspiracies, suspicious suicides, multiple murders... "When Nobody Sees Us" could be Spain’s impeccably crafted answer to "True Detective". Hailed as “pure cinema of the highest order” by "Variety" at its San Sebastian Film Festival premiere, this gripping eight-episode thriller is now available for US audiences to stream exclusively on Max. Below, we break down how you can watch “When Nobody Sees Us” online from anywhere with a VPN.
"When Nobody Sees Us" premieres on March 7 on Max.
• U.S. — Max
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN risk-free
“When Nobody Sees Us” (a.k.a. “When No One Sees Us”, or “Cuando nadie nos ve”) is the first Spanish-produced series for streaming service Max since merging with Discovery Plus.
It finds Civil Guard sergeant Lucía (Maribel Verdú) and U.S. special agent Magaly (Mariela Garriga) investigating how a grisly suicide, the disappearance of an American soldier, and the covert dealings of Colonel Seamus Hoopen might be connected after a series of bizarre events during Andalucía's Holy Week celebrations.
Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Enrique Urbizu, who won the Spanish equivalent of an Oscar in 2012 for “No Rest for the Wicked,” viewers can expect a unique blend of genres: part detective drama, cat-and-mouse thriller, and engrossing character study that helps transcend its more conventional police procedural beats. It’s also stunningly shot, with elements of supernatural realism that illuminate the show’s themes of “Pain, passion, [and the] expiation of sins.”

If you're traveling overseas and "When Nobody Sees Us" isn't airing where you're currently located, that doesn't mean you have to miss the show while you're away from home. With the right VPN (virtual private network), you can stream the show from wherever you are.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're visiting the U.K. and want to view a US service, you'd select a U.S. server from the location list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the show. Head to your streaming service app — so Max, for example — and watch "When Nobody Sees Us" online from wherever you are in the world.
Watch 'When Nobody Sees Us' online in Canada
“When Nobody Sees Us” is looking like quite an apt title! The new Spanish thriller doesn’t have a confirmed release date in Canada, which means those in the Great North can't enjoy any of the series eight episodes yet. However, we’d bet that Canadian streamer Crave, which hosts Max content like “The Last of Us” and “The Flight Attendant”, will be the likely home for the show further down the line.
Away from home? You’ll want to consider getting one of the best VPNs so you can still access the content you stream back home with ease.
Watch 'When Nobody Sees Us' online in the U.K.
Unfortunately, there aren’t any viewing options to watch “When Nobody Sees Us” across the pond right now. UK streaming service NOW is a potential candidate to host the show; however, we’ll let you know if and when we get wind of a premiere date in old Blighty.
Those taking a break from the US will need a reliable streaming VPN to log in back home and connect to Max, as they will be geo-blocked while out of the country.
Watch 'When Nobody Sees Us' online in Australia
While there aren’t any confirmed plans to release “When Nobody Sees Us”, the imminent roll out of Max in Australia leaves us hopeful that the Spanish-language thriller will be available to stream there. Max will become available Down Under from March 31. But only time will tell if “When Nobody Sees Us” is part of the region’s content library.
An American citizen out of the country? You can still watch “When Nobody Sees Us" from abroad by downloading a VPN.
