In eight new episodes, the successful series tells of the lives of the Sawadi-Kröger (Maryam Zaree, Benito Bause) and Knuppe (Minh-Khai Phan-Thi, Milan Peschel) families, who live next door to each other in the outskirts of Berlin.
As the first worldwide series, "Duplex" also ventures into virtual worlds in its second season and sends its protagonists into the metaverse. This is a digital space in which the virtual world, augmented reality and physical reality merge.
Thus "Duplex" breaks completely new ground in German fiction. The future of the internet becomes the centre of the narrative through the experiences of the protagonists. In doing so, the episode "Meta" picks up on the current discourse, the criticism, but also the enthusiasm for the virtual world of experience.
