Anxious People: on Netflix. [View all]

This is a limited 6 episode series streaming on Netflix.

The central characters are two policemen, a father and son, in a small city 2 hours from Stockholm. There is a botched bank robbery and hostages taken in a nearby apartment building. The story evolves as we learn about the lives of the hostages.

The story is quirky, funny, sad, and eventually very touching.

I really enjoyed it and highly recommend it.

In Swedish with English subtitles.

You don't have to do subtitles, you can watch it dubbed in English. likesmountains 52 Jun 2022 #6
