Although Berlin died in the second season of “La Casa de Papel,” he has continued to appear on the series through flashbacks. His character in the popular series is considered unpredictable, as he passionately sings “Bella Ciao” or “I love you”, he is equally capable of committing a violent act.
"He is a misogynist, psychopath, egocentric, narcissist, delinquent, rapist. But there are many people who admire him, because he values friendship, loyalty and brotherhood" - this is how the author of the series, Alex Pina, described Berlin's character.
After sacrificing himself to save his team in the second season, Berlin returned in the third season through past events, and is a part of the fourth season. The influence of his character continues to dictate the course of the series.
