Each season follows a different protagonist and centers on topics such as relationship insecurities, slut-shaming, coming out, mental illness, toxic masculinity, and anorexia nervosa.
It centered around Eva Brighi, a teenage girl who struggles with trusting her boyfriend, Giovanni, who used to date her former best friend, Laura, who has cut her out at school.
It broke from the traditional Skam order of central characters, instead centering on Martino Rametta, Giovanni's best friend, a closeted gay teenager.
He quickly finds himself falling in love with Niccolò, who struggles with borderline personality disorder and a tenuous family situation.
However, her confidence threatens to come crashing down when she has to face her romantic feelings for Edoardo, a popular boy at school, and is the victim of revenge porn.
This season is the first to move past the original Skam storylines, centering around Elia Santini, one of Giovanni and Martino's friends.
He struggles with toxic masculinity and sexual intimacy, which stems from his micropenis size, as well as being forced to repeat his senior year of high school without his friends.
Over the course of the season, he finds himself drawn to classmate Viola, who also struggles with intimacy after being groomed by a teacher at their high school.
Charismatic, strong, and determined, Asia and her friend group, "The Rebels," will face challenges to their decisive morals and ideals by the arrival of new students, especially Giulio.
