Not recommanded for children under 10.
Our take
This new series from the producers of The End Of The F***ing World and Misfits, tells the story of Danny living in two inner universes: his childhood world, frightening and closed, but also magical and comforting, and the real world, which he discovers with the eyes of a child just being born. Poetic, funny and tragic, this drama shows a lot of humanity and the wonderful know-how of British series.
