Regardless whatever political view you may have, you will likely agree that this series describe the current gang violence problem in Sweden painfully well. Young kids who are trapped in suburbs and sucked into the gangs, either because they don't see anything else, or that they are simply too afraid to say stay out. A law enforcement system, that tries to nail down the rotten apples who use young kids for the dirty work, but too often fails. Fiction, yes indeed. But some parts are painfully real. What the series does best is that it helps the watcher to realise that 1) the bad guys don't have any specific skin color and 2) there is no quick fix.

This director is pretty brilliant. Everything is in your face and personal. The care of characters kind of questions if this is a real story. The distortion of law enforcement has a bit of sentiment but seems like a job at the end of the day. While everyone care no one does.

I love the show's direction, cinematography. It is up my alley in taste if you are someone that like movies like End of Watch and shows like The Wire.

The cameras have very interesting angles. Sometimes you get a shoulder cam while other times steady. The dynamic affects the way you feel throughout. I thought that was interesting.

Overall, to keep short this is a good 7.8 with a magnetic intensity.

Heavy series. Fantastic acting. I can't speak to how realistic it is in terms of Swedish law, which a couple other reviews have criticized. Whether or not there were mistakes there, this series is really more about the decisions people are faced with and how kids generally lack the intellect and emotional maturity to understand their choices. The acting portrayed this well in the final scenes when it was clear how the lead detective Farid reacted/felt about what had happened in court vs the witness' lack of true understanding about what he'd done.

I recommend for the acting and directing but it really is heavy.

In the gray shadows of modern Sweden, where echoes of reality softly bounce off stark walls, the series "I Dina Händer" ("In Your Hands") offers a poetic glimpse into contemporary life. This series is a masterpiece of nuance and empathy, where the music does not merely serve as a backdrop but stars prominently, with melodies that touch both heart and soul.

The acting of the young cast is particularly outstanding, bringing a mature seriousness to the portrayal of teenage complexities. Their performances are nothing short of stunning, infusing the series with depth and believability rarely seen. These young actors masterfully convey a spectrum of emotions, resonating with a nuanced understanding of human vulnerability.

Not only does the series approach modern reality with a sharp lens, but it also portrays the complexities of police work in a manner that is both thorough and honest. Each scene is carefully crafted, with the tension of investigations interwoven with the everyday realities of the officers and the people they protect.

"I Dina Händer" is more than just a series; it is a study of life and survival, love and conflict, seen through the eyes of those who mirror society. It is an artistic endeavor that challenges, moves, and ultimately enriches the viewer.

Really?! A single mom with three kids and the son is wearing high end clothes. I don't think so!

And absolutely not every kid in these areas are wearing Boss, Adidas, Nike and others!

The story is weird and all clips from the past till present is confusing when it goes back and forth with no difference in light or colour.

I was very hopeful in the beginning but the story writer has not that many clues about what it's like in the real suburbia, Stockholm.

Then, I must say that it's very nicely filmed so you can't really tell exactly where in Stockholm it is supposed to happened.

Please do better research next time. Thank you!
