Collateral
A recent addition to Netflix, Collateral drew me in because it stars Carey Mulligan, who I would watch in absolutely anything. But immediately the show drew me in on its own merits. After a Syrian refugee pizza guy is shot to death for seemingly no reason in London, the investigation and the lives of the people involved in it reveal the myriad complex and heartbreaking issues surrounding current British immigration politics. If you’re looking to understand the impact of Brexit and Theresa May on average Brits, Collateral is the (highly engrossing) way to do it.
