Davos 1917 (2023)

Johanna Gabathuler returns to Davos after serving with the Red Cross on the Western Front, visibly changed by the war and pregnant from a relationship with a German soldier she met there. She comes home expecting to build a life around her baby, but the moment the child is born her family takes the daughter away from her, and her father coldly tells her that she has "no child." The loss is immediate and brutal: instead of being allowed to raise her baby, Johanna is forced back under the control of her family and their expectations.

Back in Davos, Johanna resumes work around her family's Cronwald sanatorium, a place that serves both ordinary patients and wealthy, politically connected guests from across Europe. While she is trapped in this environment, she also sees the pressure placed on her to accept the marriage that has been arranged for her in order to protect the family's interests and keep the sanatorium stable. Johanna refuses to accept that future and begins looking for a way to get her daughter back.

As the war continues, Davos appears outwardly calm and neutral, but secret agents from the great powers are active there, watching the influential visitors who pass through the resort town. Johanna gradually becomes entangled in this hidden world of espionage. She discovers that the sanatorium has a dark side and that the people around her are connected to political and intelligence interests far beyond what she first understood.

At a formal Christmas dinner, Johanna has a chance encounter with Countess Von Hausner, a poised and intelligent woman who immediately stands out as someone with real power and authority. Later that same evening, Johanna receives a letter from the countess telling her that she knows where Johanna's daughter is. The message makes the price clear: if Johanna wants to be reunited with her child, she must cooperate and enter into a dangerous arrangement.

Johanna chooses that path and becomes involved with the German secret service. Her motivation is not ideology but desperation: she is willing to place herself in danger if it gives her any chance of recovering her daughter and reclaiming control over her own life. From that point forward, she is pulled deeper into a mortal game of deception and loyalty, where she is no longer just a nurse or a daughter trapped by her family, but a participant in the espionage struggle centered on neutral Switzerland.

As the story moves forward, Johanna is increasingly forced to balance what she is asked to do by the German secret service against her own goal of finding her child. She becomes a key figure in the shifting network of spies, with her personal crisis turning her into someone powerful forces seek to use and manipulate. The series ends with Johanna still inside that dangerous world, having committed herself to the bargain that might bring her daughter back, but at the cost of her safety, freedom, and the life she was expected to lead.

Johanna tries to get her daughter back, but the spy game around Davos traps her more deeply instead. In the ending, Mangold is captured, Johanna is accused of treason, and she is forced to keep working for Ilse while her daughter is used against her.

Johanna is trying to build a life with Dr. Mangold and leave espionage behind, but that plan collapses at the end. Mangold is caught while preparing to escape, and Johanna is immediately pulled into the fallout. Ilse confronts her, says she has seen Johanna with Mangold, and accuses her of betrayal because the Russian secret service has learned about Lenin's presence in Davos and the German "Lenin Plan." Johanna denies that she gave Mangold any information, then begs Ilse to spare him. In exchange, she promises to prove her loyalty and help make the money handover to Lenin succeed during the charity gala.

From there, the final stretch moves into a tense chain of pressure and blackmail. Johanna is caught between the rival intelligence sides, and the story makes clear that the operation around Lenin could affect the war itself. At the same time, the opposing side has taken Johanna's young daughter from her hiding place, and that kidnapping is used to force Johanna's obedience.

By the end of the story, the fates of the main characters are left in this state: - Johanna is alive, but trapped again in espionage and blackmail, forced to continue the mission rather than escape it. - Dr. Mangold is captured and imprisoned instead of escaping with Johanna. - Ilse remains in control of the operation and uses Johanna's loyalty and fear to keep the plan moving. - Johanna's daughter is taken by the other side and becomes the leverage used against her.

In scene order, the ending begins with Mangold preparing to flee, then being captured. After that, Ilse confronts Johanna with the accusation of treason. Johanna insists she did not betray anyone, but her request for Mangold's life shows that her feelings for him have become dangerous to her own position. Ilse does not release her from the game; instead, she assigns Johanna the task of ensuring the cash delivery to Lenin at the charity gala goes through. Then the pressure tightens further when Johanna learns that her daughter has been seized from her hiding place, making the final conflict one of coercion, divided loyalties, and survival.

Yes -- Davos 1917 has no traditional post-credit scene. The end credits include only a brief tribute-style message, similar to the film 1917, honoring Lance Corporal Alfred H. Mendes, but there is no extra story scene, teaser, or sequel setup after the credits.

If you stay through the credits, the only notable content is that dedication; after that, nothing else plays.

Johanna's drive in the series centers on recovering her newborn daughter, who has been taken from her family, and that desperation pushes her into the spy conspiracy around Davos. The search results show that she repeatedly risks herself because the child is the emotional core of her choices, and the espionage plot becomes the price she pays for any chance of getting her daughter back.

Johanna and Dr. Mangold are drawn into a close, dangerous bond inside the spy game, and by Episode 6 they want to start a new life together and leave espionage behind. The episode synopsis also shows Johanna begging for Mangold's life after he is captured, which suggests their connection has become both personal and politically dangerous.

Lenin is important because the series' espionage struggle revolves around secret plans and money transfers tied to his presence in Davos. In Episode 6, the Russian Tsar's secret service has learned about Lenin's presence and the German Secret Service's "Lenin Plan," and Johanna is forced to ensure that a money handover to Lenin during a charity gala succeeds.

In the Episode 6 storyline, Johanna is forced into a high-pressure role around a charity gala where a money transfer to Lenin must be completed successfully. At the same time, she is trapped between competing intelligence services, and the situation escalates because her daughter has been kidnapped and she is being blackmailed.

The episode material shows that Dr. Mangold is captured as he prepares to escape, and Johanna's young daughter is kidnapped from her hiding place by the opposing side. Those two losses place Johanna under intense pressure, because she must bargain for Mangold's life while also trying to protect her child.

Davos 1917 is probably not family-friendly for young children. It is a WWI-era spy drama, so it includes war-related tension, covert threats, and emotionally intense material rather than light historical content.

Potentially upsetting or objectionable elements may include: - War setting and wartime danger in the background throughout the series. - Spy intrigue, threats, and peril, including scenes of people being watched, manipulated, or caught in dangerous situations. - A pregnant protagonist and themes involving a baby taken away at birth / separation from a child, which may be emotionally distressing. - High-stakes conflict and danger around secret services and political unrest, which can create sustained suspense and anxiety.

If you want, I can also give you a more specific age-based recommendation, such as whether it is likely suitable for teens.
