Adolescence cuts deep without trying too hard. It’s raw, uncomfortable, and painfully real—capturing that in-between age where everything feels intense and nothing makes sense yet. The quiet moments, messy emotions, and choices that hit harder than expected are such a treat. No glam, no filters—just growing up, exposed.
Très bonne série, très intéressante sur la responsabilité et la culpabilité des parents sur les agissements des enfants, mais aussi la responsabilité de l’école, des réseaux sociaux et de l’environnement global de l’enfant. Série tourné en plan séquence d’une heure, qui permet l’immersion complète à travers les personnages. Très bon jeu d’acteur de la part de Owen Cooper (le fils) et de Stephen Graham (le père)
Great acting powerful storyline nice and short a one-time watch though
For the first few minutes i gotta be honest I didn’t understand the camera angle. But when I finally understood than it was a single shot, I was mind blown at the geniuses. THE ACTING!!! Oh god, the acting!! Everyone delivered. The scene with the psychologist, or when the father cried in the son’s room blaming himself for the misdeeds. Master class.
Hyper interescant au niveau de la mise en scène
as a feminist woman, oh god how i cried.
Fin décevante
