How to watch CODA in Spain (and no, don't look for it on Apple TV +)

It has been the great winner at the Oscars, making history by being the first film from a streaming platform to win the coveted golden statuette for “Best Film”, and yet we can not see it on Apple TV +. Why?

CODA has been the winner of the "Best Film" award at the 2022 Oscars. The film has marked a milestone in the history of the most coveted awards in world cinema by being the first film on a streaming platform to win this award. Apple bought the rights to the film to include it on its streaming platform, Apple TV +, for the not insignificant amount of 25 million dollars. With only three years in this world, Apple has managed to beat Netflix in this race to get an Oscar.

Not only has he won this Oscar, but also the award for best supporting actor, Troy Kotsur, who is the first deaf actor to win this award. Interestingly, the actress Marlee Martlin, who participates in this film as Troy's wife, was the first deaf actress to win an Oscar in 1986 for the film "Children of a Lesser God." The film has completed its list of awards with the Oscar for "Best Adapted Screenplay".

With this award, Apple manages to beat its main competitors, demonstrating that this enormous investment to acquire the rights to CODA has been worth it. However, the move did not go well for him. The film was bought by Apple when some distributors had already acquired the rights to it, and in Spain it was Tripictures that took the cat to the water. It was released in theaters in Spain on February 18, 2022, and can still be seen on some billboards. After the success at the Oscars, the cinemas in which we can see it will surely expand, especially considering that it is not yet available on any streaming platform in our country. The arrival on Apple TV + does not yet have a date, and Movistar has also confirmed that it will be in its premiere catalog, but also without a date.
