Top of the Lake Season 1
I started this a long time ago, watching it when I was traveling, but it got too heavy for me after a while, so I stopped temporarily. I finished recently, watching the last three episodes in a row. It really is a masterpiece of crime fiction, a kind of slow thriller, distilling a truly disturbing atmosphere. Set in Southern New Zealand, it's a story of child abuse amidst a community turned on itself by the illegal activities of a local mob boss. Elisabeth Moss is fantastic as Griffin, the policewoman specialised in child abuse cases detached to Laketop to handle the case. I didn't see the final twist coming although I was pretty sure there was going to be one. Really worth watching if you're in the mood for dark and slow.
