Dearx Jeckill rated ★ 9/10
Un série extrêmement poignante, bouleversante et parfois insoutenable. Elle se base sur le fait réel très médiatisé à l'époque, sur les 5 de Central Park. Inspiré de faits réels, elle raconte l'histoire de 5 jeunes garçons de 15 ans environ accusé d'avoir violé une femme de 28 ans à New York. Cela parle d'injustice, de discrimination, de système judiciaire totalement abusif et inégal. Je recommande à 100 %.
Synopsis
Five teens from Harlem become trapped in a nightmare when they're falsely accused of a brutal attack in Central Park. Based on the true story.
