Review of Quicksand

Quicksand (2019)
10/10
Great adaption of the book
6 April 2019
If you have read the book, there wasn't as many surprises as it might have been if you didn't. However I am blown away by the adaption of this great book and especially the young actors that are in the show. Hanna Ardéhn, Felix Sandman and William Spetz were all marvelous in their roles. I think they all really brought the complexity and seriousness of the characters to life as well as the struggle to handle mental health issues. You can clearly see from the beginning Sebastian's dysfunctional relationship with his father, and how Maja is suffering because she can't save him from his demons which I think that they portrayed beautifully in this show. In conclusion - great acting, great adaption of the book and a great interpretation of the Swedish upper class society

Would recommend this to everyone (do watch with Swedish sound and subtitles instead and NOT the dubbed version)
