Is Suzhal - The Vortex season 2 OK for kids?
Parents should know
A prison-set murder mystery following a sexual-abuse revenge killing in season one; expect human trafficking, a brutal body search, a graphic crime-scene image, and a troubling same-sex violence subplot, alongside themes of empathy and quiet courage.
