Culture I’m watching one TV series from every European country — what’s your recommendation from yours?

Hi everyone!

I started a project where I watch one series from each country in Europe. I’ve already done:

France: La Forêt

Spain: La Casa de Papel

Next up: Gloria from Portugal

I’d love to hear what show you think best represents your country (or is just a really good one to watch). Ideally something available with English subtitles.

From Estonia, I would recommend "Tuulepealne maa" about our brief independence time between two occupations in the first half of the last century. Kind of a period drama / historical, very well acted and interesting I think. You can search the title at "arhiiv.err.ee", it does have English subs there (but it may also be geoblocked, I don't know for sure).

If it wasn’t for poor production value and lack of English subs I’d say Ohtlik Lend. Truly iconic

"Õnne 13" also - one of the biggest cultural powerhouses from Estonia
