I hjärtat av det dystopiska Gilead, en mörk vision av framtida USA, utspelar sig 'The Handmaid's Tale', en gripande dramaserie som utforskar teman av frihet, makt och kvinnans roll i en totalitär stat. Skapad av Bruce Miller och med premiär 2017, har serien snabbt blivit en kulturell touchstone. Elisabeth Moss levererar en kraftfull prestation som June Osborne, även känd som Offred, en av de sista fertila kvinnorna i ett samhälle där kvinnor reduceras till födelsemaskiner. Tillsammans med Yvonne Strahovski (Serena Joy Waterford) och Ann Dowd (Aunt Lydia), navigerar Moss genom Gileads farliga landskap, där varje steg är en kamp för överlevnad och hoppet om återförening med hennes dotter driver henne framåt. Med 56 avsnitt fördelade över fem säsonger, och fler på väg, fortsätter 'The Handmaid's Tale' att vara en tankeväckande utforskning av mänsklighetens mörkare sidor, där varje 50-minutersavsnitt är en påminnelse om kraften i att stå emot förtryck.

Under threat, June must find a way to keep herself and her family safe from Gilead and its violent supporters in Toronto.
June faces consequences for killing Commander Waterford while struggling to redefine her identity and purpose. The widowed Serena attempts to raise her profile in Toronto as Gilead’s influence creeps into Canada. Commander Lawrence works with Nick and Aunt Lydia as he tries to reform Gilead and rise in power. June, Luke and Moira fight Gilead from a distance as they continue their mission to save and reunite with Hannah.
June strikes back against Gilead as a fierce rebel leader, but the risks she takes bring unexpected and dangerous new challenges. Her quest for justice and revenge threatens to consume her and destroy her most cherished relationships.
Season three is driven by June's resistance to the dystopian regime of Gilead and her struggle to strike back against overwhelming odds. Startling reunions, betrayals, and a journey to the terrifying heart of Gilead force all characters to take a stand, guided by one defiant prayer: "Blessed be the fight."
Season two is shaped by Offred’s pregnancy and her ongoing fight to free her future child from the dystopian horrors of Gilead. “Gilead is within you” is a favorite saying of Aunt Lydia and in this season, Offred and all our characters will fight against – or succumb to – this dark truth.
Offred must navigate between Commanders, their cruel Wives, domestic Marthas, and her fellow Handmaids – where anyone could be a spy for Gilead – with one goal: to survive and find the daughter who was taken from her.
