### Premise
The series follows two characters whose lives collapse in the same period and cross at a funeral. Raúl (Joan Amargós), an orderly man who works in the human resources department of a car dealership, is diagnosed with an angiosarcoma, a cancer of the heart, and his girlfriend of three years, Georgina, ends the relationship. Marta (Verónica Echegui), a sharp-tongued advertising creative who prizes her independence, discovers she is pregnant and begins questioning whether this is her last chance to start a family. The two reconnect at the funeral of a former schoolmate and resume a friendship that began in childhood, testing their beliefs about love as Raúl weighs whether to tell Marta the truth about his illness.[6](https://www.formulatv.com/series/a-muerte/) • [7](https://www.apple.com/tv-pr/news/2025/01/apple-tv-unveils-trailer-for-spanish-romantic-comedy-love-you-to-death-a-muerteapple-tv-unveils-trailer-for-spanish-romantic-comedy-love-you-to-death-a-muerte-premiering-globally-on-february-5-2025/)
