South African Opening Surprised that this series is not popular in Russia. Even while watching the first season, I tried to find spoilers and found absolutely nothing in Russian.
Now on Netflix for three seasons, a total of 18 episodes, which will appeal to all fans of youth series like Elite.
"Blood and Water" was a real revelation for me, as it was the first series from South Africa that I watched and fell in love with since the first series.
First, the plot captures from the first series and keeps in suspense until the last minutes. The story is atypical: here the search for the missing sister of the main character gradually heats up and results in the disclosure of a criminal syndicate for human trafficking. The quirks add to the stories of secondary heroes, where one of the schoolgirls is forced to sell drugs to pay for the inpatient psychiatric hospital for her mother, the other – deprived of parental love falls for every guy and girl she meets before she finds herself in the most unexpected relationship. Each hero with a special character and story, which makes the characters lively and bright.
Secondly, the picture is incredibly beautiful. The views of Cape Town are fascinating from the first minutes of screen time and discover Africa in a new way for all viewers. I learned more about this faraway and beautiful country from this series than in my 10 years of school life.
Many young actors for whom roles in this series were debut, but nevertheless they coped with them with hurrah.
I recommend watching for anyone who likes teenage TV series and detective stories. Very beautiful and interesting series.
