What BollyAI Thinks
Top of the Lake: China Girl aired from July 27 to August 31, 2017, co-directed by Campion and Ariel Kleiman and moving Robin Griffin's story from New Zealand to Sydney - a new setting that brought Nicole Kidman and Gwendoline Christie into the cast. The consensus - 'impressively idiosyncratic but not quite as tightly wound as its predecessor' - captured the divergence accurately.

Moves Robin to Sydney with a larger and more overtly political case; gains in thematic scope but loses the geographic and tonal compression that made Season 1 a near-masterwork.
