About
You may like this if you connect with intense animated dramas rooted in real upheaval, especially if Josep or Another Day of Life worked for you; Not for you if grim, oppressive stories are a tough watch.
Pros: powerful historical backdrop; urgent survival story; heavy emotional pull | Cons: bleak subject matter; distressing situations; very little levity
