When mafia lawyer Björn turns to mindfulness for a better work-life balance, he discovers new coping strategies — including murder and manipulation.
I came across Murder Mindfully by chance on Netflix. Lately I've been watching mostly K-dramas, but while I do love those, I have been conscious of not practicing my other languages enough lately, so a German drama for a change seemed like a good idea. I really enjoyed this one from start to finish. There is a bit of a Dexter vibe about it, but with a bigger dose of black comedy along the way. Tom Schilling was absolutely brilliant as Björn; his delivery and facial expressions were spot on and really helped to drive the scenes. I was pleased to see a second season is coming later this month, so I will definitely be watching that. I may also try to check out the original book the series is based on if and when I get chance. I am giving this one 5 stars.
