Excellent suspenseful series with different storylines.

Too bad that apparently all Germans speak good English. I think it took two generations before most Germans can speak English.

The Russians have acted over the top as bad guys. But other than that I think the atmosphere is excellent. Post-war bombed-out Berlin divided into four sectors and the civilians trying to survive.

Murder, revenge, love, romance, extreme cruelty, history lesson. It's all in the series. And I don't know if it's all right.

Nina Hoss is an excellent performer. In any case, the German actors play well.

Nice series about a post-war Berlin.
