"Adolescence," a Netflix series, has captured viewers' attention with its intense narrative, leading many to wonder about its origins. While not directly based on a single true story, the series draws inspiration from various real-life cases involving teenage crime and psychological issues. The show's creator, Guillaume Renusson, has mentioned that he was influenced by several high-profile cases in France, including the 1996 murder of Agnès Marin by her classmates, which highlighted issues of bullying and peer pressure.
