On Netflix, I started to watch a show called Stranger Things, and it's probably the best show I have ever seen. It;s about this group of friends and one of them goes missing into this alternate world. It's sort of in the genre of science fiction, but it's more about the characters and the story of it all than the aliens. Will Buyers, the kid that goes missing, is stuck in this "upside down" world and his mother and Will's friends are the only ones who knows he's there.
The rest of the town thinks they are crazy for believing Will is trapped in this alternate universe. I think this must be really hard for the mother because everyone thinks she's crazy, but if I were in her situation, I think I would do anything to get to my son, even if everyone else thought I was crazy. This would be really hard especially since the sheriff, Hopper, won't help her because he doesn't believe her. This aggravates me because as the viewer, there is dramatic irony since I know where Will is, but none of the characters do.
I love Stranger Things too. It is cool that you noticed the dramatic irony.
