3% is a Netflix original created by an all Brazilian cast and staff. This dystopian show is eight episodes long, each episode is around 45 minutes long and are subtitled due to it being in Portuguese. The setting is Brazil, divided in two portions, the larger majority which is poor and the smallest ‘3 percent’ who live lives of total luxury. The only way to make it amongst these elitist is to pass through the test that citizens take when they turn twenty which can last for weeks and tests mental and physical strength as well as character. The show follows 5 main characters, who are trying to survive this opportunity to have a better life and their overseer in this fundamentally broken society. I would strongly recommend giving this show a shot if you’re looking for something new to binge.
