Source Episode 7 of A Small Light was good but for the most part very intense, although the entire episode happen in one day and its focus on a single moment but probably the most important one of the series and what its really about, the story of Miep Gies and the memories of Ann Frank.

Source This is a Mini Series I was waiting for, I'm a sucker for War movies and series, even thought this was presented as a drama during the World War II its still very interesting, but this is a series I will have to be very careful with I'm going to post about it, there are very sensitive topics about what happen during those times, for me rather than a drama and thriller series I will treat it as an educational…More
