Personally, I used the subtitles as I found the dubbing to be more distracting.

But, as you probably guessed, only 3% of applicants make it through.

This leads to a Council Monitor being sent to review both The Process, and its current leader.

However, being a core member of the cast in no way ensures survival.

Heres a quick run-down of the shows main characters.

She was raised by her brother, until he went missing after his attempt to pass The Process.

Fernando

In many ways personifies the hopes and dreams of The Offshore.

Rafael

The obvious villain of the piece.

His sole interest is in making it to The Offshore, by whatever means necessary.

Not popular, but as that isnt one of the criteria of The Process, he doesnt care.

Joana

An orphan raised on the streets of The Inland, forced to fend for herself.

A firm believer in the value of The Process, he inevitably ends up playing God with peoples lives.

Aline

Sent by The Council to review and report on Ezequiel and The Process.

Highly able and ambitious.

We learn the backstory of everyone, and through them, more about The Inland.

We learn about life there, how these specific characters lived, and what drives them through The Process.

It is also worth taking some time to appreciate the craft of the show.

Visually,3%is great.

The Inland, a once-impressive city, is impoverished.

By contrast, The Process and The Offshore are, inevitably, far more subdued.

The colors, for the most part, are muted.

Creams and greys suggest a less hectic, more ordered existence.

Everything this is sleek and smooth, metallic or glass.

Practically perfect in every way.

Meanwhile, The Offshore is only ever hinted at.

Many scenes are shot in a more unconventional manner.

There is also a great use of mirrors.

Characters are reflected back at one another, or at themselves.

They talk and we see several versions, or the reflected version, rather than them directly.

There is a liberal use of handheld camera work providing a great feel of uncertainty and unsteadiness.

An often overlooked element of show design is the music.

Providing a rustic charm, the whole thing feels very haphazard and free.

The episodes run for between 38 and 48 minutes, depending on the story they need to tell.

The episodes dont feel baggy or self-indulgent.

At the heart of the show is a sense of moral ambiguity.

The good guys are not perfect, and the villains are humanised.

With only eight episodes it doesnt outstay its welcome, but doesnt rush through the story either.

With a second season already confirmed by Netflix, youd do well to start watching this.
