Synopsis

The Rising tells the story of Neve Kelly, a young girl who finds out that she is dead. Once she realizes that she has been murdered, she determines to find her killer and get justice.

Publicity

In Cumbria, a hologram of the protagonist, Neve, was projected onto Derwentwater the day before the series was released. The figure mouthed "come and find me" to passers-by, who were surprised to stumble upon the projection on their morning walk.[8]

Reception

Writing for Fiction Horizon, Nelson Acosta gave the show a mostly positive review, praising Clara Rugaard's acting, as well as the cinematography. He also commented that it lacked humour and dynamism.[9] At The Upcoming, Andrew Murray also complimented newcomer Rugaard and wrote positively about the show's plotlines and hooks. He critiqued its focus on teen drama, however.[10]
