Two Finnish women in London are drawn inexorably together via the Studio, a clandestine group dedicated to bringing vigilante justice for those without a voice, to those beyond the law. As their battle against human trafficking, racist politicians and corporate-environmental greed intensifies, will the Studio’s ends continue to justify its means?

OUR TAKE This sometimes-disturbing off-beat series is set in an alternative London far from the clichés, exploring the temptation of seeking justice in the face of macho and populist abuses.
