In an abandoned temple, an illegal clinic was established through an abandoned tunnel network. Daniel, a surgeon suffering from personal tragedy, is trying to get into a new experience in his life. Daniel started helping patients and was willing to pay for the full medical assistance at this clinic. Li, a disgruntled transport officer, and Anna, a medical researcher, are helping Daniel with his mission, treating a variety of desperate patients. That task may be a test of Daniel's ethics.
Temple's secret is slowly unveiled at the end of a fine opening episode in which three seemingly disparate stories merge and flow forward in one direction.
[Temple] feels, at times, like early Tarantino, with dodgy coppers and incompetent criminals, as [Mark] Strong holds the thing together with his glower.
It's loopy enough, admittedly, as an entire premise... but if you can just, pretty please, suspend your disbelief for long enough to get your talons into it, it's hugely rewarding.
Maybe it will all get more believable as it goes along, but that was what I also thought about the first episode of Valkyrien and then I forgot about it entirely.
