Excellent way to tell this shocking story
12 December 2022
Very well made docudrama about the attacks of Breivik in Norway in 2011. The story is told through the eyes and experiences of people that were directly and/or indirectly affected by the attacks. This approach works really well. It is hardly impossible to not feel affected yourself.

The story is told very cleanly without too much dramatic enactment or imagery. In this lies the power of this series.

Though this drama is centered around rightwing extremist ideology, it might just as well have originated from any other form of political or religious extremism. The series depicts a universal problem with extremist non-democratic beliefs and ideologies that anyone should be able to recognize in his or her own society.
