This is a second-by-second examination of human psychology, the anguish of parenthood, and the failures of all the systems that, ostensibly, should help and protect teenagers.

Unbelievably good mini series. Non stop filming without any cutscenes. And top notch acting. Haven seen a series of this quality for a long time.

The audacity to even think they could pull this off, and then they just do it! I’ve never seen anything like it. Absolutely incredible!
The coordination! The production! The camerawork! The story! And the acting!
Seriously, give every acting award ...
