What would you imagine if you were told that the end of the world will not be fast with a big bang, but rather slow and between pandemic diseases? That is what Case 63 tells, a Chilean science fiction podcast produced by Spotify that gives us the story of a time traveler who has to prevent patient zero from expanding the variant of COVID-19 that will kill humanity.
Case 63: what we know about serial audio that is all the rage on Spotify
The podcast is written by Julio Rojas, a Chilean screenwriter who was inspired by the context of COVID-19 to create a realistic end of the world. Its protagonists are Antonia Zegers, who plays the role of Dr. Beatriz Aldunate, along with Nestor Cantillana, in charge of bringing Pedro Roiter to life.
It was number one on the trending charts in five countries: Chile, Colombia, Argentina, Mexico and the United States.. It was also adapted for Brazil under the title of Patient 63 and for India under the name of Virus 2062, and will be dubbed into English at the end of 2021. This is the first time that a non-English speaking original Spotify podcast has been adapted to several languages. This reaffirms the global reach of content that the streaming platform is leading and its commitment to bring high-quality storytelling to all regions of the world.
What is the case 63 podcast?
It is a sound production that places its development in the year 2022, where the psychiatrist Elisa Aldunate begins a therapy session with “Patient 63”. As the sessions progress, time, space and reality begin to blur, messing with listeners’ minds. The drama and thriller audio series is made up of 10 episodes that provoke mystery for the audience.
Is it based on a true story?
The podcast is based on a real context, since it mentions the current COVID-19 pandemic. What makes it more dark and credible is that the writer offers us a possible scenario that does not sound so far-fetched about the end of the world. “It is taking elements of the present, and (asking) what would happen to social networks or what would happen to the virus”creator Julio Rojas said in an interview with Podcast Fest Latam.
Along the same lines, the author believes that the success of this story is not only due to good writing, but also because it calls for reflection on what would happen if we didn’t take care of ourselves. “One wonders that beyond this series may be lying, this can happen. When one reads the comments, it is said that this fear of the future is much more present than we imagine,” Rojas said.
