Anna

Anna has been shot six months before the Covid outbreak which paralyzed the entire world but in the end it wasn't all that bad. In Anna though things take a different turn, allmost all adults die and so you get a story about surviving kids, with some flashbacks where the adults got sick. But it's mostly kids that play the main characters and they did well considering the age of some really young ones. Giulia Dragotto plays Anna and she did very well. Anna is also categorized as a horror but I wouldn't go that far, it's just an interesting story about how kids try to survive in an apocalyptic world. Some nice cinematography as well what made this series stand out and worth watching.

Anna is no bad work - some fine cinematography, acting is solid, the soundtrack too. A weak point are those flashbacks that are imo disturbing the natural flow and tone of the story told. But nevertheless, Anna is an interesting and partly really entertaining contribution to the post-apocalyptic genre and as such, worth a try, assumed that you are not only on the search of the next action and gore-loving movie/show in Mad Max style. Recommended if you like such shows/movies like Los Últimos Días (The Last Days, 2013), Into the Forest (2015), The Road and so on.

A fascinating plot and amazing kids who acting like today's biggest movie stars. It's like Italy brings back Fellini in a modern way! BRAVO!

I went into this thinking it'd be a typical kids survive apocalyptic scenario like "The Tribe" and ended up watching one of the best shows I've ever seen. It's cinematography, child actors, musical score, atmosphere and story was hypnotic. You are completely drawn into this strange Lord of the Flies meets Pans Labyrinth recipe and it doesn't stutter or drag at all. There are so many scenes which will stick with you. And the cherry on the cake was my favourite song ever playing at the end which fitted like a glove. Wonderous.

I was very hesitant once I saw it was a series full of kids, but wow did they turn out to be amazing! The acting was amazing! This is my first experience with authentic Italian cinema, and all I kept thinking was how they were in a completely different league than what I'm use to in the States (Hollywood). Not only the acting, but the story telling, the details, the sets, etc etc.

I was blown away by this series. I can't believe how much they did with just six episodes. It truly is a masterpiece.

What the hell am I supposed to do now? Lol...
