Synopsis
This drama series tells the story of Prairie (Brit Marling), a blind girl who disappeared 7 years ago. Once, being already matured, sighted and strange, she appears on the doorstep of her parents. She asks to be called OA. Gathering five strangers (as it seems at first glance), she talks about what happened to her over the course of seven years. In parallel, she teaches her friends about strange movements, which, according to her, can open a portal to another world.
The OA, with its slow and not always logical plot, is a very heartwarming TV show. From start to finish, it keeps intrigue, reminiscent of a strange dream. However, this is its zest – in the era of series with a clear plot, “OA” offers a strange and very attractive alternative.
