Utopia, Dennis Kelly, 2013 - 2014

Created and written by Dennis Kelly, this two seasons British series is as much a UFO as it is a masterpiece in the world of series. It is impossible to stay indifferent to the heavy atmosphere and the nutty storyline sticking to the skin of the twelve episodes. In a few words preserving the mystery: Utopia narrates the escape of a group of people who don't know each other and who only have in common a passion for a graphic novel: The Utopia Experiment. We could add a bit more to make you drool, but no, really, go ahead with your eyes closed (or rather wide open).

Both seasons are available on Canal Plus, and to immerse yourself further in the series' delirious universe, the soundtracks are available on iTunes and YouTube.

 

 

Star Wars

The Disney Group recently launched Disney + platform, with a free trial version available for seven days. We thought it was a good opportunity to discover or plunge back into the universe of the famous saga Star Wars. Seven films, seven days free trial, who takes up the challenge?
We thought of Star Wars, but all the Disney, Pixar, Marvel and National Geographic productions are available on the platform, which chose the right moment for its launch.

Everything is to be discovered on Disney +.
