A Strange Place is an ironic, at times critical, and fun portrait of Catalonia and the Catalans by those who know them only too well.One and a half million pairs of foreign eyes are on the Catalans around the clock. They belong to immigrants who have settled in Catalonia over the last few years. After all, they need to learn about their new country’s little foibles. The temptation of asking them what they found out proved irresistible.A Strange Place is a bit like a survival guide. In the series, 60 newcomers describe the natives and their odd customs, and what it takes to live with them.The newcomers speak their minds, talking about the Catalan idiosyncrasies that they find engaging, amusing,infuriating,or just plain weird.All in all,it’s a wonderful opportunity to see oneself through the eyes of others.
