00:00This series literally shows you what happens when you push a deeply kind person to their limits.
00:04We follow the story of Carrie, a 16-year-old girl who is starting high school for the first time because
00:09that she has always lived on the fringes of society.
00:11From the very first days, she will be targeted.
00:13Mockery, harassment, and it will escalate to the finale that you might already know if you've seen it before.
00:18other adaptations.
00:19So, Carrie, one might think it's just another Stranger Things-style series with a teenager who
00:22has superpowers
00:23But for me it's a bit deeper than that.
00:25It talks about serious issues that happen every day in middle schools and high schools, about harassment, and...
00:29cyberbullying.
00:30How can adults and the administration in general be so completely clueless on these issues?
00:34The police don't understand, the journalists don't understand, the scientists don't understand.
00:38And you won't understand either.
00:40How do we end up, in a way, blaming the victims and practically protecting the harassers?
00:44It's not black and white, though; I like the psychology of the series because it shows you how
00:48The monsters themselves are manufactured.
00:49But if we had to summarize the series in one sentence, it would be that for every action, you will inevitably have a
00:54reaction of equivalent and opposite intensity.
00:57In short, Carrie is 8 episodes on Prime Video, it goes by easily, it's intelligent, suspenseful, a little stressful.
01:02For me, it remains to be seen.
