This excellently made short series is atmospherically dense like Black Mirror.
But it's not about the consequences of technological development.
At least not directly. But about the collapse of the social order, the survival of people while everything around them no longer exists.

Each individual episode represents a certain period of time, e.g.
episode 7, which shows a woman surviving 50 days after the collapse of society (one of the best episodes, by the way).
The exception is the last episode 8, which shows the events 5 days before the collapse.

A much too unknown series that left a deep impression on me.
Unfortunately the series only consists of 8 episodes, each about 15-25 minutes short. The short duration of the episodes is an advantage when designing a captivating episode. I hope there will be a new season with more episodes at some point.
With episodes this short, there should be at least 15 episodes.

In terms of production (camera, editing, lighting, sound / music), the consequences are all equal and well done.
This is an example of what the European film industry can offer.

Presumably some self-proclaimed ''patriots'' (Neoliberals with great love for the rich) who are delusional will see this series as socialist propaganda.

score 9/10
