Starts as a distraction, turns into an obsession: the new Netflix series you just can’t quit

A crime during a Kylie Minogue concert inside the White House would, in itself, be an open invitation to absurdity — yet it’s merely the starting point for an investigation that drifts between surreal humor and a veiled critique of power’s inner workings. In Shondaland’s new series, the murder of a butler turns the political heart of the U.S. into a chessboard of farce, vanity, and secrets, where even the truth seems procedural.

Aboard a past that never existed, a young girl crosses corroded landscapes alongside a silent robot, sifting through the wreckage of a fictional era in search of her missing brother. “The Electric State” reimagines the 1990s as an alternate future already born in decay, blending digital emotions, post-industrial loneliness, and the toxic legacy of major corporations. This isn’t merely science fiction — it’s a visual elegy for what we choose to remember.

More than a romance set against a backdrop of conflict, this drama plunges into the collision between survival and intimacy in a society where loving someone can be a political act.

Disguised as an apocalyptic satire, the film leads the viewer through a scathing portrait of a society that has normalized collapse. The comet threat is merely a pretext to expose collective delusion, the erosion of science, and the spectacle of misinformation.

Set on the front lines of World War I, the film revisits Erich Maria Remarque’s novel through an unflinchingly human lens. Rather than glorifying conflict, it exposes the psychological breakdown of young soldiers caught in a senseless spiral of violence. War is portrayed not as an epic, but as a slow erasure of identity — where the loss of innocence proves as devastating as the bombs, and as silent as the fear that shadows them.
