A new viewing guide highlights several notable productions, including a Netflix documentary titled 'Lead Children' that tells the true story of children affected by lead poisoning in communist Poland. The documentary addresses how some politicians today use nostalgic optimism to downplay the inhumanity of communist regimes, portraying them as mythical pastoral worlds full of healthy food and pristine environments. The recommendations also include a detective story about Sherlock Holmes' coming of age, quirky affairs from American suburbs, and a continuation of a post-apocalyptic series whose first season received four Emmy nominations.
