this is pretty amazing, and one of the best instances of sociological storytelling and the multiple levels of systemic incompetence, corruption and arrogance since The Wire.
it also doubles as a horror series as others have said

I couldn't even finish episode 4 when the puppy scene happened. It was just too much for me emotionally at that moment. I'll probably finish the show by the end of the week but man was that episode brutal.

Just watched the first episode. I cannot believe the same guy who directed Superhero Movie is the creator of this beautifully haunting piece of art.

This is possibly one of the best things television has ever offered us.
edit: remembered something and thought this detail might be of interest to some of you (if you weren’t aware of this already):
Vichnaya Pamyat - the name of the episode 5, is called “memory eternal”, a speech usually given to commemorate those who have passed. But it’s not told from the perspective of the dead, but by god, as god’s memory of the dead is thought of as definitive, like the truth, therefore, granting the dead eternal life. Like the people who brought the truth of the events to everyone’s attention and refused to let it be forgotten.
