LOW

Jack Rhysider

6 episodes · in order · Explicit

From the creators of the podcast Darknet Diaries comes LOW. This five-part series follows a boy forced too early into the jaws of the world, and the man he becomes while trying to survive it. From the shattered innocence of childhood to the false freedom of drugs, violence, exile, reinvention, and purpose, his life unfolds as a brutal argument with fate. Again and again, he is broken, remade, and thrown into another version of himself. Each time closer to clarity, each time farther from peace. What begins as survival becomes transformation, and what becomes transformation hardens into a mission he cannot ignore. Wide awake at last, he steps toward the thing he believes he was born to do, even as it burns through him and pulls him nearer to the edge.
