Netflix's Dark is an extremely plot-driven show best understood in flow charts and infographics

The Ringer

According to The Ringer, "Dark is a German drama on Netflix about time travel and confused teenagers. But if you were constructing a course about its themes, Item 1 on the syllabus would be the variable concepts of responsibility and free will; Item 1a would be multigenerational trauma. I guess I no longer need to describe Dark as grim—central to the plot is the unexplainable disappearance of two young boys in the small town of Winden—but the show’s preoccupation is whether or not we’re doomed to repeat past mistakes." ALSO: Dark must be watched with subtitles -- not English dubbing.
