Elite season three feels like the end of an era. The first two seasons did well to balance a big ensemble of eclectic characters across its run-time and is back for a third season, Elite picks up right where the climactic second left. The season highlights both the best and worst parts of the show, while pulling it all together for a reasonably satisfying conclusion in the end. Thankfully Netflix has a few handy recaps for the previous two seasons and if you’re a little rusty on all the nuances of this story, it’s highly recommended to watch those first. In its simplistic form, the story revolves around a group of teenagers at a prestigious school who find their world turned upside down when fellow student Polo kills one of their own, Marina. With this weighing heavily over the events of the story, season three begins with scenes from the future as Polo is found murdered on a dance floor after tumbling out a high window. With at least eight different people classed as suspects and each with their own motives and reasons for killing Polo, the story jumps back and attempts to fill in the blanks to the big question hanging over this season – who murdered Polo? Alongside this are the various romances and different teen melodrama that fills most of the run-time. This season introduces two new characters too, a new flame for Carla in self-made, rich student Yeray and the shady Malick, who winds up in a relationship with Nadia while exhibiting interest in her brother, Omar. Stylistically, the season does well to cling to the same structure previous ones have, with pockets of the future added for dramatic purposes.
