Plot:
This is a family mystery saga with a supernatural twist that takes the story back to 1986. Two missing children connect four families as they search for the kids in the present day.
The question isn't who kidnapped the children, but when. The years 2019, 1986, and 1953 are somehow linked.

In season 2 Jonas finds himself trapped in the future and desperately tries to return to 2020. Meanwhile, his friends Martha, Magnus, and Franziska are trying to uncover how Bartosz is involved in the mysterious incidents in their small hometown of Winden.

Review:
Rating: [Watch it] / It depends / Skip it
  • This is interpersonal drama, time travel, and mystery all thrown together. It's got parts of Back to the Future, Lost, and Primer.  While it makes you work for it due to the sheer number of characters and a lot of quick scenes you need to remember, the experience is rewarding. The first episode throws a lot at you. It's bewildering and it should be. I went from skeptical it could answer all the questions and provide a satisfying conclusion to no longer caring. The ride is worth it. This is an experience that's bewildering and fascinating. Are we constrained to fate or is free will an illusion?
