“Adolescence” is a British television psychological crime drama series created by Emmy nominees Jack Thorne and Stephen Graham and directed by Emmy nominee Philip Barantini. It centers on a 13-year-old schoolboy, Jamie Miller (Emmy nominee Owen Cooper), who is arrested after the murder of a girl in his school. Each of its episodes was shot in one continuous take. The limited series received critical acclaim for its directing, writing, and cinematography, with special attention paid to its atmosphere and performances. It has received thirteen nominations at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards, including for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series and acting nominations for Graham, Ashley Walters, Christine Tremarco, Cooper, and Erin Doherty. Thorne, Tremarco, Walters, and Emmy-nominated cinematographer Matthew Lewis were all kind enough to spend some time speaking with Giovanni Lago, Daniel Howat, Will Mavity, and Brendan Hodges about their work respectively on the series, which you can watch or listen to below. Please be sure to check out the limited series, which is now available to stream in full on Netflix. Thank you, and enjoy!
