Sense8 Official Trailer

Imagine waking up one day to discover your consciousness is suddenly linked to other strangers around the world. That’s the fate of eight individuals in the sci-fi series Sense8. The characters — who  span from straight, gay, lesbian, poly and trans — can see and feel each other’s thoughts, emotions and experiences.

 Sense8’s showrunners are also Matrix movie creators Lana and Lilly Wachowski, both trans women. It  isn’t just the  impressive representation of LGBTQI characters and storylines that makes this show fun to watch. Its sci-fi premise is original and unexpected.
