Die rote Kapelle

For me, "Die Rote Kapelle" (The Red Orchestra), which is based on a true story, is one of the most exciting spy thriller TV series. Firstly, because the history of the Soviet espionage network in the Third Reich is little known. Secondly, in my opinion, this story is told in a very interesting way. The narrative does not seem to take any position on the events being reported, which gives the impression of authenticity and objectivity. Thirdly, we have an in-depth psychological drawing of the characters. None of the characters in the series are heroes, cowards, or fanatics; we only have people of flesh and blood here. It forces the viewer to think about what they would do if they found themselves in that time and in a similar situation, and in my opinion, only a few historical films manage to do that. I think that the acting was also at a good level, and all of this together made watching this series a great pleasure for me.
