Synopsis: The Highlands (org. Gora) is a 22-episode procedural drama television series that follows a mountain search and rescue service team. Each episode features a rescue mission, their causes ranging from illegal activities, natural disasters, and negligent and reckless conduct – to lighter fares such as eternally unprepared tourists. Besides saving lives and preventing greater accidents, our heroes encounter alienated, lonely people who have lost their way not only on the mountain but in their own lives. The show opens up socially relevant conversations such as peer and online violence, generational change, alienation, growing up, gender inequality and many others.
