This series provides a rare opportunity to experience something real while watching Netflix.
You will find complex characters that develop, rather than resolve; moral dilemmas that are not black and white; a study on hypocrisy; theme of forgiveness/moving on/acceptance of humanity in all its flawed glory.. and all of it is set against the backdrop of grimy, sketchy Naples in the 90s - which looks pretty much opposite to the "eat-pray-love" kind of Italy.
Each episode was thought provoking for multiple reasons, and I devoured the series the way I devour cold coconut water on a hot summer day.
I docked a star for the horrendous musical score.
