This show tells a story of my town of Wroclaw, I was 17 years old when that happen and remember it so vividly. I remember the anticipation in the air, the fear, but also people saying "nothing will happen". All these conflicting feelings and messages have been portrayed so well in this show. 25 years after the tragedy, it brought all the memories back. I recognise the old footage intertwined in this show from news outlets, that's such a great idea to add it.
I love this show, because it portrays the tragedy really well, the politics and the family drama that all took place during that July. Sure, some of it is fictional, but each family I know in Wroclaw had their own share of drama, and while the show made some creative decisions, the spirit of that is just right. The town of Kety and the villages fighting for it is actually called Lany (south east of Wroclaw).
I gave this 10 stars because all the characters are incredibly believable, there is a great attention to detail to make Wroclaw look exactly like 1997, and I can feel the writers clearly took a great care to understand what people went through and portray all the stupid decisions that were made.
I remember reading an interview where one of the members of the HQ said to the men in the room "this discussion is all fascinating, but it should be taking place in an university lecture hall not here! Here we need decisions".
