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.

Last episode is the best. The series could've been better at half length. I pity and I'm totally against those so many very young children actors forced to swim amongst that colossal amount of real unhealthy garbage. There ain't no regulations there concerning juveniles' hazardous "jobs" ?!?

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.

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.

In Fench we say that cinema is the 7th art and this limited serie make you understand why.
You are being told a good apocalyptic story through the lense of a director that clearly took too many drugs in his life. The result is near perfect IMO, with great acting by most (however some were terrible), a good music track, useful flash backs that help you understand where your favorite characters come from, super original in the sense that it looks like nothing that I have seen and great artistically scenery mixed in.
Anna definitely should be on your list if you are a movie fan who gets bored by the typical stuff.

Anna is by far one of the most interesting post apocalyptic shows I've ever seen. Lord of the Flies meets The Stand with a healthy dash of family love and a pinch of a coming of age story is what you'll get with this. The acting from the kids is awesome, the music fits perfectly, the sets are amazing; they literally made it look like kids ruled the world for a few years with the grime and filth. I was hooked 5 min into the show. FYI not a show for young kids.

Anna is a tv show about children but not made for children. And as it is made for adults I find the sexual undertone highly disturbing. The way some of the girls are pictured seems totally out of order, and has no value for the story line itself. Very creepy.

Yes it is disturbing, violent. Not easy to watch. But the scenes, the acting, the story are incredible. The last episode show us what love from a mother to a kid to her sibling is all about.

I have, like many people, been very interested in movies, shows and fiction about post apocalyptic speculative scenarios. I saw Anna when it came out; I've thought about it a lot since so I watched it again AND read the book.
This is a different world than we have seen in other iterations of this genre. It is the world, but specifically Sicily, after all the adults over the age of 16 or so not only have died, but also will die. All the kids will age out, and they know it.
It's like a global scale Lord of the Flies. The author of the book was intent on not sentimentalizing the children. They are wild and brutal and feral, they have no sentimentality, no history that they can really remember. They are savage, blunt. Heartbreaking. And beautiful. The cinematography is exquisite; the lighting, the dreamy grunge of everything. The soundtrack and score- impeccable. This is next level story telling, hence it won't be everyone's taste. But you'll see and feel things you never thought you would. It's haunting, and that's probably the highest praise I can give. It stays with you.

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 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...

Greatly enjoyed this series bout how children cope when left alone without adults. The adults have all died from a virus but the children are ok until they hit puberty.
Stick with it, it's really worth it The music is stunningly beautiful & haunting also.
I hope to see more of the actors from this as they grow & develop their skills.
Lots of themes including how children behave when left to their own devices. The cruelty or compassion is volatile. They stick with family or make their own with a clan, the clan leaders have power and its very scary to witness them behaving like cruel dictators.
