The Mire - Rojst ’97

A swamp is a simple metaphor for a society that has undergone several significant shocks in the 20th century, when, as one supporting character notes, one whore succeeded another. The filth needs to be drowned in the swamp, which is extensive and can accommodate a lot. The series is adept at capturing the atmosphere of the post-communist hangover and the chaos of the wild nineties, which the more cunning ones saw as a great opportunity to enrich themselves and had no problem eliminating obstacles by the most brutal means. 1997 is a solid and intriguing crime series, with the script being particularly noteworthy for skillfully intertwining the destinies of numerous characters and not being afraid to confront skeletons from Poland's past. Overall impression: 75%. (19/05/2022)
