Money Heist (Spanish: La casa de papel, "The House of Paper") is a Spanish heist crime drama television
series created by Álex Pina. The series traces two long-prepared heists led by the Professor (Álvaro
Morte), one on the Royal Mint of Spain, and one on the Bank of Spain, told from the perspective of one
of the robbers, Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó). The narrative is told in a real-time-like fashion and relies on
flashbacks, time-jumps, hidden character motivations, and an unreliable narrator for complexity.
Set in Madrid, a mysterious man known as "The Professor" recruits a group of eight people, who choose
city names as their aliases, to carry out an ambitious plan that involves entering the Royal Mint of
Spain, and escaping with €984 million. After taking 67 people hostage inside the Mint, the team plans to
remain inside for 11 days to print the money as they deal with elite police forces. In the events
following the initial heist, the group's members are forced out of hiding and prepare for a second
heist, this time on the Bank of Spain, as they again deal with hostages and police forces.
