Is it for me?
Spy-thriller viewers who want the Iranian side drawn as people, not villains, will find a lot here. Niv Sultan plays Tamar as an agent who improvises when plans fall apart, and Faraz is a pursuer you half understand. In one early scene she hides with her aunt while he and Tabrizi both widen their searches, so even family stops being safe.
Before you start
Later seasons lean more on personal drama and move slower.
