Finally a Netflix TV series that isn't all about LGBTQIA+, racial and gender equalities. A great work of image reconstruction, very well componed with sound and music into a complete story. Unfortunately, it's not authentic and nothing new. At times it attempts to mimic the legendary They Shall Not Grow Old, however, it's not unique, never-before-seen footage. The directors didn't even try to break out from the suit and similarly to other WW2 documentaries, failed to show the Soviet Union as a second aggresor on Poland in September 1939, responsible for even more deaths than a Nazi Germany and without which the latter wouldn't start a war. These times were even better opportunity to do so than before with Putin's regime trying to reinstate the USSR in eastern Europe. Even though it's one of the best Netflix series in a long time, it's only slightly above the average compared to the similar productions globally.
