Netflix dystopian series ‘The Rain’ told through youth eyes
Psaga through the eyes of youth because the drama would hit multiple levels.
“We found it interesting to meet these characters in a time of their lives where they’re supposed to find out who they really are, and now have to do this in a world where everything they would normally mirror themselves has been stripped away,” Potalivo said. “The Rain” is Netflix’s first original, foreign language young adult series. The streaming service says more like it are coming.
For example, later this year, Netflix will release “Baby,” a coming-of-age story that explores the unseen lives of high school students in Rome, Italy. Netflix also will release later this year “Elite” — a series that follows students at an exclusive school in Spain that attracts the children of the privileged and those from working-class homes.
And next year, Netflix will unveil “Quicksand,” a series out of Sweden that is based on the bestselling novel by Malin Persson Giolito.
The show is about a mass shooting at a prep school in Stockholm’s wealthiest suburb. Across
