The Drowning (Season 1)

The Drowning (2021) is a compact British psychological thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Jill Halfpenny plays Jodie, a woman who never stopped looking for her son Tom, who vanished nine years ago. Director Carolina Giammetta keeps it to four episodes — no padding, no detours.

Then Jodie spots Daniel, a teenager in a crowd. The face, the posture, the eyes. Close enough to restart a hope she never fully buried. She starts closing in on him while a police officer, played by Rupert Penry-Jones, closes in on her. Four tight episodes about obsession, maternal grief, and how quickly a fixed idea tips into something dangerous. Watch The Drowning online on iFILM.
