Many have rushed to criticize the show for being slow and boring. The narrative takes place in a small Swedish town, and many of the cliches of this type of tale-such as tragic family secrets and an evil enterprise destroying the environment-were unavoidable, as in previous top-rated Scandi-noir dramas such as "Katla" and "Trapped". However, this is one of the rare examples where the tiny circle of people playing the roles of suspects and victims served a legitimate goal, which was not to answer the whodunit but to reveal the true relationships between these characters and the real causes of the tragic events. So congratulations to peers who correctly identified the bad person, but this was neither statistically difficult in a pool of a few suspects nor the primary goal of this show.
Giving even a little detail on who, when and where would reveal everything so I will not provide any detail about it since ultimately everything finally seems to play a strong function in the real plot which is not what first seems and which gradually unveils in amazing manner in each of the six episodes.
People also thought the filming seemed emotionless. The Swedish accent makes it difficult for the main characters to experience the feelings they unleash, hence this criticism has only logical grounds-especially for English language viewers. Not only were the laconic dialogues and the characters tense, but I also believe that each part should be closely watched to ensure that what is truly happening is followed. The finest thing about this program is how skillfully it created one of the best character developments of a wicked mind. The story is told under close proximity to a scientific criminologist with the best twists on a warped psyche.
Once more, I want nothing to be spoiled; but, before and after the secrets come to light, pay close attention to the acting of every character to realize how great it is particularly for the three main characters of the show.
