Nuance

This is one of those stories that is sure to grab your attention from the start and keep you both guessing and in suspense until the vey last scene.

As we meet Yuri, a girl that at an early age already lives with regret and does pretty much all she can to compensate the regret of her childhood. Trying to become a better adult than the ones she met as a child by getting rid of the problem and making sure the predators wont be able to act agin . Some would call it a vendetta, other murder, self defence, protection others defence works too.

However unlike many other vendetta stories out there this one comes with a bunch of messages, consequences, the guilty conscience and a whole lot of nuance and suspense.

We also get a window in to lives of her two friends/non friends (its complicated) . Those who kill together may not always be able to physically stay together, but no bond is stronger than owning crucial evidence of the crime.

Watching this you may wonder how many people will get killed by the end of the story, but it is not the numbers that count but the suspense of not knowing who will kill (and why) next that keeps you in suspense (plus a bunch of other stuff) .

A powerful story, that is easy to binge but not so easy to handle.
