Watch on HBO.
Set in a dystopian future where a fundamentalist theocratic dictatorship forces women are to live as baby producing concubines, The Handmaid’s Tale is a haunting series based on the book by Margaret Atwood. The show offers a visceral experience of a world that has let authoritarianism take over. Elizabeth Moss stars as Offred, a woman mandated into reproductive servitude under Gilead. We watch as Offred slowly connects with a revolutionary front. A select few who are willing to challenge the powers that be. But with so many eyes on her, can Offred survive the powers that be?
If you are willing to suffer through the regime’s atrocities to get to the revolution, you should definitely give this show a look. May peace be with you.
