- Description: The chilling echoes of the Cold War reverberate not just through the espionage plots of "Summer of Rockets," but deep within the fractured hearts of its characters. This masterfully crafted series, a period drama steeped in intrigue and human drama, isn't just about secrets and lies; it's about the profound impact of societal pressures and personal choices on the individual soul. Stephen Poliakoff's nuanced writing explores themes of family, loyalty, and the burden of past trauma with a delicate touch. The performances are uniformly excellent, drawing us into the complex lives of these flawed yet compelling individuals. "Summer of Rockets" is a slow burn, rewarding patience with a potent cocktail of suspense, emotional depth, and a haunting reflection on a bygone era’s enduring legacy.
