Wow, this one was really bad.
Gave it a try for 5 episodes. But the storytelling is not convincing at all. The protagonists are like a stereotypes-best-of. Which actually is a worst-of. There is this cool antifa-like-dude who instantly connects to the poshed girl, who changes her whole mind/life from one second to another. Then there is this farmer boy, who stands for hard working people and tradition that is eaten up by global capitalism. And there is also a turkish-german kind of guy so you can deal with racism-topics etc. Completed is the group with an emo-girl to catch those insecure teenage watchers i guess.
I think this series wants too much with too less effort. The character development of the protagonists happens so fast that you cant really call it a development. Its like "its off...oh no, now its on". The dynamics within the group is just as badly played out. Another thing to mention is that these critical things, that are presented about the world today are dealt with very superficial. One topic comes up and in the next episode its gone in favor for another one. Okay, you could say it has to be, since it shows the still naive way of the teens looking at these things. But i dont know if that was the Intention of the director. And if it was, this is not crafted convincing either.
Overall it seems as if the director had been in a rush to put out a stylish series that deals with current topics with relatable characters for every misunderstood teen. Therefore it now lacks story and more than one-dimensional characters.
Really not recommended! And really sorry for Peter Thorwarth. Youve done so much better work!!
