Sense 8

A story of eight mentally linked 'sensates' from across the world, Netflix's Sense8 offers one of the most complex and well-executed stories in modern fantasy. Hunted by a man named Whispers, the eight must share their knowledge with each other to escape his reach, and in doing so overcome cultural bias. With a diverse cast of trans, homosexual, Chinese, African, Indian and more, it uses an arching story to highlight important themes of acceptance and identity. The Wachowskis' develop their characters' individual and combined stories throughout the series, creating a complex yet perfectly executed narrative. Weaving all the episodes together is a constant sense of tension and mystery. As the characters discover their past and abilities, so does the viewer, providing a constant source of twists as Whispers and the sensates try to outsmart each other.
