Adolescence

A very pure and realistic portrayal of what a child and parent go through during an arrest and trial. What an impressive accomplishment of Owen, who apparently has never acted before this which is insane, and of Stephan Graham, who I need to see more films of. Every episode being shot in one take gives every episode and dialogue so much more depth and meaning, it’s as if you’re just another person in the room watching something you shouldn’t be part of. Especially the first episode, made me question a lot about what’s ethical to do in a case like this. Barging in a door, holding a 13 year old at gun point.. is this..okay?  Amazing series
