Elite: Short Stories 1 the first set of Elite: Short Stories. It is a weeklong special of short episodes that act as a prelude to the fourth season. It created by Carlos Montero and Darío Madrona. It premiered from June 14, 2021 with one episode per day, until Thursday 17. It will be celebrated as #ÉliteWeek.^[1]^[2]

The stories are set to "expand the Elite universe." They are not a spinoff show, but more like vignettes or bridge content that lead up to the fourth season. There are 4 stories each consisting of three short episodes.

Carlos Montero and Darío Madrona written the scripts and have used all the plots that were left out of the development of conventional seasons. It is produced by Zeta Ficción TV and directed by Dani de la Orden and Jorge Torregrossa.

On October 28, 2021, Netflix announced three new holiday-themed installments of the Short Stories, Elite Short Stories: Phillipe Caye Felipe, Samuel Omar and Patrick.^[3]^[4]

Synopsis[]

The stories take place during the summer before the start of the new year in Las Encinas. In the four stories, different individual and joint plots of some of the most veteran students of Las Encinas and perhaps newer ones will be explored, revealing what they have been in the last summer before starting their new school year.

“	"Every new season we write, we always end up leaving some of our characters' stories out," show co-creator Carlos Montero says in the release. "They don’t fit the format or there’s no physical time to develop them, and we’re always left with the bitter taste that we would have liked to share them with everyone. That’s more or less how the idea of Élite Short Stories came up, we wanted to take the opportunity to explore those stories that we wanted to tell and let the world discover them." “We also thought that in these uncertain times, it would be a great gift for the fans, since we all need something good to happen to us," he continued. "And what better to make the wait for the fourth season more enjoyable than to give them these little stories full of intimacy, love, comedy, friendship, and a little bit of craziness. It is a gift for the fans, and it has also been one for Darío and me to have been able to write them”.	”
