Netflix has added a host of new series to its catalog this summer, and among them are titles that could easily have flown under the radar. Journal.hr highlights three series that might appeal to Croatian viewers: a true-life drama, an animated comedy, and a biographical story.
The miniseries The Bombing of Pan Am 103 is based on real events surrounding the bombing of a flight over the Scottish town of Lockerbie in 1988. The series follows the investigation into the plane crash on both sides of the Atlantic, as well as the devastating impact the event had on the local community and the families of the victims.
The cast includes Connor Swindells (Sex Education), Patrick J. Abrams (Suits), Lauren Lyle (Outlander), Merritt Wever (Unbelievable), and others. The series focuses on the human stories and the aftermath of the tragedy, making it an emotionally demanding but important title.
British comedian Ricky Gervais, known for The Office and Afterlife, has tried his hand at animation for the first time. He has unveiled the comedy series Alley Cats on Netflix, which centers on cats.
As a big cat lover, Gervais places a group of British street cats from different social backgrounds in a story about seeking companionship and reflecting on everyday life. The series brings his signature humor in a new, animated format.
Netflix has also recently added the Spanish series Moria, which follows the titular character whose immense and iconic fame peaks at the end of each life stage. It's a biographical series in which Moria Casan plays herself.
The story raises the question: where does Ana Maria Casanova begin, and where does Moria Casan end? The series explores the boundaries between public persona and private identity, making it an intriguing choice for fans of biographical stories.
