Viaplay’s young adult sensation series returns for a season 2
Highest scores in history for a drama series on Viaplay
It’s a young skewed thriller and a story about Marion and Marit, two best friends in third grade in high school. They are super close, on the national team in synchronized swimming and dream of getting scholarship to the US after high school. Just before the Norwegian spring break, one of them gets a sex tape spread around school. This causes enormous rumours at school and amongst the friends and family and it all gets very ugly. Dramaturgically we start with the end, where one of them is being killed accidentally in the swimming pool by the other and spin the story backwards.
