The story continues from “Jo Do Nazarion.”
The series revolves around a murder, but the twist is that the entire story isn’t told from a single perspective. There are two main characters here, whose ways of looking at the truth are different.
On one side there is a news reporter who is covering a murder case in her hometown. On the other side is a detective who is investigating the same case. Both have different versions, and sometimes both start doubting each other. The viewer also gets trapped in this confusion.
A Perfect Slow Burn of 6 Episodes
The series has a total of 6 episodes, and each episode deepens the suspense. It is not fast paced, but runs in a slow burn style. At the end of every episode you feel that everything is clear now, but the next episode changes the entire picture.
The biggest thing is that till the end you are not able to guess who the real culprit is.
Tessa Thompson’s Strong Role
Tessa Thompson is in the lead role in this series. Her character is of a woman who appears strong from outside, but is internally battling with her past trauma. Tessa has played this role very naturally, due to which her character does not seem boring and keeps the attention in every scene.
Jon Bernthal’s Intense Detective
Jon Bernthal plays another important role in the series. He is playing the role of a detective who wants to reach the truth in his own way. His character is calm, but he seems quite intense. Whenever he comes on screen, the scene becomes heavy.
The pairing of Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal looks quite effective on screen, without any extra drama.
Why should you watch this series?
