A Sci-Fi Mystery With Time Travel & Alternate Timelines? Yes, Please.
Recommended to me by a coworker, Dark is a dark, twisty mystery, involving the disappearances of children in a small German town.
After local teenager Jonas’ father commits suicide, he has a mental breakdown and spends some time away. The series begins with his return to his hometown, grappling with the disappearance of another teen whose case has no leads. It turns out that children disappearing is just scratching the surface of what’s been going on…
Dark has time travel, alternate timelines, kidnapping, murder, and community/family drama that unfolds, reminding us that in small towns, everyone is connected and everyone has secrets. Jonas is determined to get to the heart of the mystery in the small town of Winden, but he’s not the only one.
Perfect for fans of Fringe, Inception, and Memento, the first season of Dark is addictive. Luckily for new viewers, the second season will air soon on Netflix.
