The Day

2018 · 1 season

A cold, nerve-racking hostage drama that demands close attention as it replays the same day from two sides, tightening the screws with each perspective.

Genres
Drama, Crime
Overview
The nerve-racking events of a cold winter's day, seen from two different perspectives. The odd episodes tell the story of a team of police negotiators and special forces who respond to a hostage crisis in a small bank branch. The even episodes tell exactly the same events, only through the eyes of the criminals inside and their victims.
How it feels
Tense, dark, bleak and cynical. Slow-burning and demanding.
About
Crime, survival, isolation, deception
Content
Mild violence and language. No gore or sexual content.
Note
