    Really interesting story, a 10 but average editing, a 5.

    Really interesting story, a 10 but average editing, a 5.

    I highly recommend.

    Very good acting.

    The English dubbing was excellent, I usually prefer to watch in the original language but this time I made an exception and I was very pleased.

    I am usually not too fond of German cinema (of course with some exceptions). This was similar to a British production/series.

    I liked the fact there was no clichés or any politically correct agenda. It is refreshing that there's wasn't any agenda forced on us.

    Don't miss it.

    Not predictable at all: a bonus as I tend to guess and it takes away the experience.

    Maybe a bit slow as well.

    Follows the Shadow of Unconscious Mind....

    Hi...I recently finished watching Psychology based webseries on Prime "Sebastian Fitzek's Therapy - Season1". Its amazing. Its surely complicated and has events which keeps going in past and present frequently, the way our brain keeps recalling and act very quickly. You might feel leaving it in-between due to complexity. But just hold the patience for a while.

    It gives interesting insights of how our Conscious level of mind/brain responds to things happening around, has impact of or drivers coming from Subconscious and Unconscious level of mind/brain. Sometimes we may not be able to identify what is really driving responses and reaction in current environment but this Webseries tracks it down to peep deep into both Subconscious and Unconscious level of mind/brain, to correct the Conscious level of mind/brain.

    Though the event discovered at the end of this Webseries is the key context of this Webseries, we call it Climax. But you can look at this as indicating context to find our own or someone else's contexts which possibly are driving our/their current Conscious level of mind/brain i.e. The Responses/Reactions of our own or people around.

    Its a journey of following the Shadows to find the Good and Bad Characters playing in our deep in mind/brain which brings the show on the stage of Responses/Reactions.

    I liked one dialogue from this Web Series i.e. "the more you try to hold things inside (unresolved), it will make you more uncomfortable and ill"

    Wow- just awesome

    I was waiting to watch something causual and call it a night ! Yea ok binge watched the whole series.

    What an interesting story this was. Tugged at my heart strings and I played right into the story of this beret father.

    Also so curious about the institute he had worked for. There's always a good story in a mental institution. Always.

    It is a bit slow but that makes up for how quick a scene goes by that you have to rewind in your mind before another quick one comes.

    Out of the blue I choose a show reading no reviews at all and enjoyed it immensely.

    Great acting, captivating scenery. Lots of false clues. For a Friday night binge I saw bravo!

    Superbly crafted

    This is the story of a psychiatrist who believes he has "misplaced" his daughter. It contains several clever plot twists, dramatic incidents and insightful vignettes of family life. The first two episodes leave us quite confused and unable to predict what will happen next. Then things take a decidedly eerie turn. Of course, all is resolved in the sixth and final episode. In fact I did not believe all the puzzles could possibly have a convincing resolution, but to my surprise they did and the story held together well.

    The cinematography alone made this a gorgeous viewing experience. English speakers can avoid the dubbed version, I found the original German dialogues together with English subtitles just perfect. This is a very European mini-series, thankfully missing the plastic acting that defines Hollywood these days. More on the lines of the great Nordic noir serials. Strongly recommended for the discerning viewer.

    Intriguing and captivating psychological mystery

    I have not read the book so I'm not sure how true the series is to the book. However, I found the series to be a very enjoyable watch and highly engaging.

    The focus of the story is regarding the missing daughter of the main character, Dr. Larenz. Josy goes missing at the age of 13. The series moves between different time points starting with the day of her disappearance and it moves into the past and into the future, 2 years after her disappearance. Ultimately we learn the fate of Josy, but I won't give any spoilers away.

    As well as moving between different timelines, we are also moving between different sub-plots and everything came together at the end.

    The characters are believable and well acted. I watched the version with the English dubbing and it was good.

    The setting of the series is in Germany. In some episodes we are taken to an atmospheric island in the North Sea called Parkum, a setting that I enjoyed.

    The number of episodes and the length of the episodes was right, in my opinion.

    Overall, I can highly recommend this series.
