Barcelona’s Raval is at the centre of a new TV story, as the historic restaurant Can Lluís has inspired *Això no és Suècia*, the latest HBO Max series set in the city.

The restaurant has become a symbol of the fight against property speculation, and its story has now crossed into fiction. The series takes its name from the original Catalan title and places Barcelona firmly in the frame.

For readers following local culture and city life, this is another example of how neighbourhood landmarks shape the stories made about Barcelona. You can also follow more coverage on our [Community](https://barna.news/tag/community/) page.
