This television series revolves around the subject of children going missing under strange and unexplained scenarios. It has some similarities with another Netflix hit show, "Stranger Things."

The plot is expected to expose disturbed relationships among a few families, as well as their double lives. It is also expected that that there will be a surprising twist to the story, which will be linked back to Winden in 1986.

The all-new Netflix series is tipped to premiere in winter. The cast includes Jordis Triebel, Oliver Masucci, and Louis Hofmann among others.
