La noche del solsticio de verano

5 episodes. 30 mins per episode. Finished all in one seating. It felt like 300 eps of Lifetime Soap Opera family drama condensed into a 2.5hr movie, which I absolutely appreciate and love about it.

Everyone has their share of things going on, in which you find out one after another. Everyone has their own flaws. Every bit of their struggle is so relatable - it makes you think "what would you have done if you were in their shoes?" and I love such shows.

It truly is an evening of big confessions. Love the casting choices and hope to see more of Amalia.

A midsummer night filled with drama and ends with love.

The series starts off during the joyful festivities of Midsummer Night in the beautiful backdrop of Norway.

This show begins with the parents with one looming secret, however it turns out that it is full of plot twists, secrets and complexities every family seems to encounter in real life.

Many times you will question the character's motives and actions and will want to know what happens next.

Compelling stories throughout the 5 episodes, and I am hoping for a second season so we can see these characters and their stories continue so lingering questions can be answered

Highly recommend seeing the diversity of characters Amalia Holm plays in such shows as Motherland Fort Salem, Delete Me, Alena and Playground.

... way all the storylines get tidied up nice and neatly at he ending is okay, if just a bit unrealistically-boring... it's well-done-acted-fun in Norway, just a bit more bite would have made it better

... one critic's review summing it pretty well.. "(were) this a longer show, there'd be time to understand the characters, find favorites, and support them in their finest glory, but with five episodes, there isn't really any emotional impact. Though the show does attempt to bring to the forefront the idiosyncrasies of each member present, it kind of leaves you a little bit unsatisfied. However, I will admit that the cast is fantastic, and each member brings nuanced performances and stands out individually. Still, it's a formulaic drama that has your betrayals, guilt, and misunderstandings to make it entertaining rather than feeling like you're watching a boring old family gathering."

... definitely worth a watch, just don't expect much from all the hectic-proceedings.

The series starts off with a dramatic scene full of tension that sets the tone for the rest of the show.

It's full of plot twists, secrets and complexities we face as human beings in real life too.

All of this comes to light during the joyful festivities of Midsummer Night in the beautiful Norway.

You'll have some foreshadowing here and there that you'll pick up a hint or two that'll make you think, hmm that is probably linked to this or that and that makes you want to keep watching until you know it all.

Compelling stories, an even more interesting end with yet many questions left unanswered, hoping on a second season so we can see these characters their stories continued.

Because there is so much more to explore for these characters and their stories that were told in these 5 episodes.

At first, I thought it's going to be a normal story about normal family gathering to celebrate and having a little party at the nature, with the smiling and those faces and the worms in their feelings but as it turns out, there is a particular reason for the party and you're gonna be shocked because the collapses it's going to fall down one at a time after another.

It kept me open an episode one after one until I finish it, I felt catharsis after watching all this happen and actually, I was relief because I thought it's challenging to phase those kind of situation, especially when you see yourself in one of those characters, you Gotta feel the pain you gonna feel the doubt the sadness and the joy and happiness and the smile on your face so I say it's worth your time but what happened in the end, it's up to you what it satisfy you or not?
