    Stihsl: an Israeli show about a Haredi (ultra orthodox) family living in Jerusalem. I don’t like family dramas usually, but this is really good. The social structures, traditions, and parallel religious society is interesting and surprising. Traditional religious life with its many rules gives people a framework on how to act in all situations and a dense social network. The lack of freedom and shame from rule breaking plays a role as well. The main character is a young man living with his father, who’s starting his career and is looking to get married. Streams for free on arte.tv in some European countries.

    Loki: An actually good Marvel show about timelines, time travel, multiverses, destiny, freedom, bureaucracy, institutions, and causality. Loki as an anti-hero has a lot of charm. Two seasons with total 12 episodes. Story is completed.

    Saboteurs/Heavy Water Wars/Kampen om tungtvannet/Saboteure im Eis – Operation Schweres Wasser: A British special forces unit on a secret mission in WW2 to sabotage heavy water production in Norway, that Germany needs for their nuclear program. Solid miniseries. Watch with a library card from Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Luxemburg, Belgium, Liechtenstein on https://filmfriend.de/
