Safe Home

Streaming has exposed international television series on an even playing field, and Australia can certainly hold its own against the best in the world. This series is the best I've seen. Wow.... Brilliantly played story, yet painful to digest the truth it represents. This is frighteningly real, yet presented so peacefully - like a perfect picture of a horrible event. Melbourne is well presented as a local would experience it - barely a token cafe or tram to be seen (thankfully), but some genuine inner north urban represented. All involved in this production should be immensely proud of the beautifully respectful story told of such an awful subject - a must see.

A more important tv series for all to watch I can't think of! I watch a lot of tv series & this was utterly fascinating! The subject matter is ignored by the masses because it's easier to act like it's not happening than to do something about it! Powerhouse acting all around & I was left guessing u til the end of this first of hopefully many seasons! I must know what happens next to these characters that anyone with a heartbeat will connect with! Great storytelling at its best and the limited episodes of 4! I can't recommend this series enough & I'm ver much looking forward to more from the creators of this series! Australia really has some good content to add to vast abundance of great content to view!

I just discovered this short series on a streaming channel.

Of course it takes place in Australia, but I have no doubt women succumb to the same mistreatment or violence worldwide. I have never been so informed of this particular theme, and even though the information is presented in a short television series, the actors do a wonderful job of capturing the viewer and bringing one into the fold.

Although the Safe Home jumps around quite a lot between the affected individuals - and sometimes the jumping kind of confused me - the dynamics of Safe Home says there is a lot more to be told and just 4 episodes does not fill the void.

As a male viewer, I was initially hesitant and almost switched off during the first 15 minutes of the opening episode due to the subject matter. However, the exceptional production values, brilliant script, skilled direction, and compelling acting kept me on board, and I'm grateful that they did. This series masterfully builds the drama through its clever use of time cuts. It keeps the audience guessing throughout.

The impressive production values and overall quality of the show are a testament to the talent involved. Kudos to series creator Anna Barnes. I'm looking forward to her next endeavour.

Highly recommended.

I admit I had to steel myself to watch Safe Home, and initially did so mainly because I thought it was such a 'worthy' project. However, while saying Safe Home is 'enjoyable' sounds too flippant, this show is definitely not an 'eat your greens' viewing experience. Of course, it deals with a very confronting topic, but does so sensitively, and delivers its message(s) via well-constructed-thriller and engrossing-workplace-drama plots. In short, Safe Home is absolutely gripping, and really well acted and well written. All the cast are great, and Aisha Dee is superb in the lead. Congratulations to all involved!
