A fascinating insight into 1920's Germany; its people, politics and culture.
It graphically portrays the torture of poverty which resulted in extremist politics and the conspiracies that arose from that.
On a personal level it beautifully reveals the main characters vagaries and weaknesses and the actors/actresses play their roles to perfection.
I'm halfway through S3 and I'm totally engrossed.
Give it a chance....you'll love it
