Having polished off the Danish series "When the Dust Settles" which is an absolutely superb drama set post a terrorism event, I was somewhat cautious about taking on the same topic so soon, especially as it would be hard for it to live up to such high expectations.
However "Lost Luggage" does not disappoint. As with the Danish series, the focus is barely about the bombers / terrorists themselves but instead about the ripple effects that permeate people's otherwise normal lives. Some become severely limited and others are totally lost.
My partner counsels people with PTSD and she verifies the accuracy of the paths people end up on and the portrayals in the show. Having never experienced PTSD myself, I feel as though I have a better grasp on what others might be going through.
At first it felt like the series might be partitioned into separate stories, however half way through there is more connection and inter-weaving plot lines, all backed by a fantastic cast.
You can't ask much more from a series than what this one delivers. :)
