Synopsis
In a post-apocalyptic future where humanity has lost the ability to see due to a devastating virus, See follows Baba Voss (Jason Momoa), a warrior and leader of the Alkenny tribe. The series begins with the arrival of Maghra, a pregnant woman seeking refuge, who gives birth to twins capable of sight—an ability considered heretical in this new world. As word spreads about the sighted children, Queen Kane of the Payan Kingdom sends her Witchfinders to hunt them down, leading Baba Voss to protect his family against overwhelming odds. The narrative unfolds over eight episodes, exploring themes of survival, identity, and the societal implications of blindness.
See has garnered mixed reviews. Critics praise its ambitious premise and world-building but often highlight its uneven writing and pacing. The performances, particularly by Momoa and Sylvia Hoeks as the mad queen, are noted for their intensity. While some viewers appreciate the series’ unique take on a dystopian society adapting to blindness, others find it lacking in depth and coherence. Despite its flaws, See presents an intriguing exploration of human resilience and societal evolution in a visually imaginative setting, making it a compelling watch for fans of genre television.
