Infamia

This was my first time binge-watching a Netflix show, but I had to cut it short as I had to get up for work the next morning. There are just two more episodes left for me to finish. I absolutely adore the main character, the cinematography is exceptional, the soundtrack is on point (I've already started listening to it in my car), the characters are intriguing, and I find it fascinating to get a glimpse into the lives of these communities in my neighboring state. It feels like a relatable experience, growing up in similar panel flat neighborhoods. Yes, I'm loving the show and especially Zofia.

It's quiet a good story about a young Roma girl who moves from United Kingdom to Poland. It starts all good, but it tends to be so so boring. I mean it is a good story, they show us where she began, how free she was living her life before and how difficult it is for her to cope with the Roma style of living and rules. But it gets so long and the story slows down too quickly. At first, after two first episodes I put nine out of ten but as I moved on to the fourth and fifth etc episodes I couldn't see the time for it to get to the end. I love polish cinema and don't get me wrong, actors are good, picture is good, but the story gets too long.

In one word: WOW. What a show. Everything from the story and characters to the music and atmosphere are simply spectacular. This is the kind of quality that rarely comes along, and I hope it wins dozens of awards. The show is moving, gritty, poignant, and searing in its commentary on modern life for Roma communities. Zofia is breathtaking, and supported by a fantastic ensemble cast.

The cinematography is atmospheric, beautiful, and oftentimes magical. The writing is sharp, powerful, and moves the story along with intensity and heart. It doesn't shy away from the racism and brutality Roma people face daily, yet balances this heaviness with beautiful moments of connection and joy.

The actors are all fantastic. The music is touchingly haunting. I don't have enough words of praise to heap on this series. GO. WATCH IT. It's easily one of the top 3 things Netflix has put out this year. I literally signed up to IMDb just to be able to review it - it's that good.

It's very good if u don't take it too seriously. Romani culture changed, nowadays no one forces girls to get married. Poles aren't that racist but they wouldn't treat the gypsy girl so special in real life. No one would give an attention to her bad rap. Apart from the fact that the film is terribly exaggerated, I enjoyed it. To be honest i like it more than "Euphoria". 10 points for costumes and traditional music. The film frames are amazing too. It fits good into drama genre. I'm waiting for more with a hope next time polish cinema won't show characters in such a stereotypical way. And I won't have to listen to horrible rap anymore...
