Drama Stage Temporada 3: Todo Mundo Está Lá (2020)

Plot twist!

Synopsis: Soo-Yeon is a 16-year old girl who gets relentlessly bullied. She wakes up in a hospital after a particularly cruel incident and while thinking of ending it all, a mysterious counseling teacher appears on her bedside. The women talks the young girl out of her suicidal plans and starts taking care of her. After a short while, they meet Soo-Yeon's long-lost twin, who -unlike her twin - is a rebellious and reckless young woman. The three of them make a simple but effective plan to take revenge on the bullies.

Opinion: The setting was quite dark and hopeless, which suited the storyline. The bullying and overall attitude of the adults managed to make my blood boil, but I honestly couldn't bring myself to care for these characters on a deep level. The acting was okay (a lot of "expressionless-cool/sad-girl" moments) and the music suited the atmosphere. It could've been a good story if there was a little spice, or I don't know, maybe if the movie wasn't that short?
One of the plot twists I saw coming, but the other one was unexpected. The movie touched on a mental illness but didn't fully grasp it. That's fine though, I personally stopped expecting that from my dramas.

Recommended if: you like dark settings, short stories, are into plot twists and like a revenge story with... well, debatable outcomes. If you wanna cry your eyes out, this isn't it, but if you're okay with feeling mildly uncomfy and hopeless the whole time, then give it a go I'd say.
