’42 Days of Darkness’ is a Chilean crime series set in the city of Chile. The story is about Cecilia, who is leading an ongoing investigation to find her missing sister, Veronica. During the search, Cecilia had to deal with authorities’ negligence, social stigma, and violent media attacks on the case.
Thanks to a talented cast of actors including Claudia Di Girólamo, Aline Küppenheim, Daniel Alcaíno, Pablo Macaya, and Gloria Münchmeyer, viewers are caught up in the suspicious narrative in each episode. In addition, the faint tone sets the mood for the series while different locations where authorities and Cecilia seek out Veronica keep viewers guessing about their actual locations.

Aside from the modern architecture and city appearance, Santiago is also surrounded by many mountains. Many filmmakers were attracted to the city because of its diversity and preferred to use its features for filming purposes. Over the years, the capital has participated in all kinds of filmed projects, such as ‘The Amazing Woman,’ ‘The Wolf House,’ ‘The Amazing Race,’ and the ‘Jailbreak Agreement.’
For filmed purposes, the cast and crew of ’42 Days of Darkness’ even traveled to the town and houses of Villarrica in southern Chile. They seem to have been living in the southern part of the country for a long time as the production team also used the Puerto Montt area – a port city and the southern region of Chile – to record a few sequences for the first season of the series.
