Forse

Questa serie si immerge nel mondo di giovani ingiustamente accusati, costretti a scavare buche infinite in un severo centro di detenzione nel deserto. Quella che inizia come una punizione apparentemente insensata si trasforma presto in un'emozionante ricerca di un tesoro perduto da tempo e nello svelamento di un mistero che collega passato e presente. È una storia di amicizia, resilienza e ricerca di redenzione contro ogni probabilità, dove ogni palata di terra porta alla luce un altro pezzo del puzzle. Umorismo genuino e ironia oscura conferiscono alla narrazione il suo tocco unico.
