Transferts

This six-part series is riveting TV. An interesting-enough premise (transferring a mind into a new body) soon brings a whole host of unforeseen problems. So many parallels with current issues of refugees, surveillance, police state tactics, church-state divide, political donations, and many more. Episode 2 is a little light on as it takes time to fill some backstory, but the pace and plot soon pick up. Do not miss this.

Decided to write a review as this show needs more people to see it and rate it. I enjoyed it immensely and admired the moral questions raised throughout the series. It really delved into the good and bad sides of a society where science and religion are rivals, indeed similar to our current society. I wish more people watched subtitled series!

Transferts is not necessarily sci-fi in the classic sense. It's way more about mankind, god, believe & the role of religion, science or the government in our society. The series manages to create aside of stereotypes a complex yet effective sometimes even disturbing atmosphere. A lot of questions, some of them unpleasant and controversial, are asked and not all are answered in the show which is another aspect I really enjoyed. The cast is great, the soundtrack perfectly matching, the story absolutely relevant and smart.

Although watched with english subtitles due to it being french..... well worth the effort. Was hooked after 15mins into the 1st. Episode. Good sc-fi premise and surprisingly well acted! Show religions in the light to which they are... corrupt with greed. Politicians corrupt... well goes without saying. Police force corrupt. Human selfishness. You get the idea.... 10/10. Highly recommended... if you like sc fi infused with ethics and morals. Looking forward to season 2!

Watched all episodes in one go on ARTE and wondering how this show has so little feedback on IMDb, it got me totally hooked.

If you've loved Ghost in the Shell (the original series), you will like this show even better. Just start watching the first episode if you're still unsure, you won't be disappointed.
