Before speaking a little more about the series I would love to ask you, do you like mystery and science fiction?, Travels in time?, The paradoxes?, The complex stories in which you need a lot of attention? Or, the most important: Do you want to learn a little about quantum mechanics in a simpler way?, If your answer is yes, then you can prepare for this series that taught you that travel in time is not something simple.
The Story is based in a small fictitious town called Winden, in Germany, where there are four families among its inhabitants: the Kahnwald, the Tiedann, the Nielsen and the Doppler.

Jonas, the only son of the Kahnwald family persecuted by the doubt, will be responsible for taking us for this interesting adventure and the secrets of Winden, from the nuclear power plant and these 4 families will be realized, on a trip between the past, present and future; And it is that a simple phrase that is repeated several times in the series and without doubts, one that could summarize some things is that ...
"Everything is connected"
I know that there are a million series and films that have a similar theme and are confusing, Dark is similar in that aspect, the series has a unique way of counting the facts so, if you do not pay attention to you will be impossible understand; Many compare this series with Stranger Things, but friends, Dark is much more complex, forces you to think many things, therefore you need to devote full attention and a sound mind on this superb trip, lol😁
But not everything is both cognitive and rational complexity, this is balanced with the factor of human feelings, goodness, love, fear and other things we can see them here, where each character has a development and we can see several facets of a same character, which seems an excellent complement to accompany the story.
Here we can see how each share of the characters in the past affect the events in the future, but this is not about a battle between good and evil, all in a certain way want the same. There is also the mathematical, physical and mythological and philosophical factor, such as the particle of God, parallel realities, religion, yarn of ariadna, a lunar cycle, among other things, but neglect, it is not necessary to be a genius in this to understand what happens.
Dark has an interesting story that will surely catch you and you want to know more and more, as you advance you can create your theories and then check if they are correct. We can also see that it employs fantasy to talk about existential issues, such as the meaning of life, the belief of God, the reasons for dying, the repercussions of our actions. Undoubtedly, Dark makes us enter our dark side to decipher from where we come from and where we go.
In conclusion, Dark is one of the best series of the platform in case you want something more series that requires a little brain. However, it is still an interesting reflective series where you can learn a little about the quantum mechanics of insurance you will love it and you will enjoy it in its three seasons, by the way, something positive of the series is that there is no filling and everything is important to understand the plot.
By the way, one thing is that the character casting is excellent, the adult and adolescent versions of the characters look so much among each other, so much that they even seem the same person and here an example and do not worry that it is not spoiler.
