Stunningly shot with excellent performances, but very slow moving and more concerned with being ambiguous and leaving mysteries unresolved than addressing its convoluted plot. There is no satisfying ending to this genre mash-up, and it left me scratching my head in frustration as to what the hell actually happened. Too long with no actual pay off or meaningful explanation for the paradox that drives the first episode. This show gets lost in its bleak setting and smoke filled interiors, assuming that the audience will find these unusual locations compelling enough to not worry about the narrative. Perhaps the meaning we are looking for is that there's literally no meaning, and that's a bummer because there are loads of other shows out there that provide smarter and compelling resolutions to their mysteries. Sadly, this show is beautiful to look at but a complete waste of time that will make you feel cheated and angry.
Perfect scenario for the ones like me who adores sci-fi and Interstaller. Thank you France for such an incredible movie, thank you Kazakhstan for making it real.
Great series really. At first I had doubts because at the same time interesting, at the same time slow.
But the pace and the storyline justify watching the whole series. Don't rely on the notes of people who couldn't see it in full.

An intriguing mix of international crime thriller and science fiction, set in the decaying "Soviet" space and nuclear testing bases in the Kazakhstan desert. Pace is a bit slow to start, and there seem to be significant plot holes, although maybe I missed things due to the lack of subtitling of heavily accented English dialogue. But if you like shows like 'Dark' and 'Outer Range', it's well worth watching for the intriguing mystery, cinematography, incredible twists in the final episode, and some great performances, notably the Kazakh cop. A bonus is seeing Céline Sallette-Julie from the brilliant 'Les Revenants'/'The Returned'-in another lead role.
It's a slow burner, no doubt about that, but a very well developed project until the fifth installment when the bubble bursts and from then on, it's just formalities.
I do not know anything about the French female lead, but her Kazakh counterpart is excellent with his film noire like behaviour, sad, disillusioned and basically broken. The story develops slowly but becomes compelling overtime. The production value is excellent and the camera work is quite spectacular sometimes. I adore that the home video style shaky camera work is absent all together.
All in all, this is a good show - if you a sci-fi fan.

- TriviaWhen asked to sum up the entire series in a few sentences, producer Eric Laroche said: "After a complex mooring manoeuvre at the ISS, ground control lost contact with the station and the crew is in distress. At the same time, a decapitated and wax-covered body is found on a roof in Kazakhstan. The identification leaves no room for doubt: the body belongs to Anthony Kurz, an American astronaut who is currently in the ISS, in orbit 400 km away, in space. The French astronaut, a French astronaut, who had been dismissed from the space program, was convinced that Kurz called her for help from the ISS. She is teaming up with Isaak Turgun, a Kazakh policeman disavowed by his superiors, to resolve this mysterious paradox: Could Kurz be living in space and dead on Earth?"
