Based on the best-selling novel by Margaret Atwood, this series is set in Gilead, a totalitarian society in what used to be part of the United States. Gilead is ruled by a fundamentalist regime that treats women as property of the state, and is faced with environmental disasters and a plummeting birth rate.
In a desperate attempt to repopulate a devastated world, the few remaining fertile women are forced into sexual servitude. One of these women, Offred, is determined to survive the terrifying world she lives in, and find the daughter that was taken from her.
The fourth season of Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale centered around Elisabeth Moss’ June Osborne finally escaping Gilead.
She was already a fierce rebel leader but once she stepped on Canadian soil she became even more dangerous to her enemies.
This season saw her take countless risks and overcome extremely dangerous obstacles. Consumed by a quest for justice and revenge, June has now tasted blood and though Fred Waterford (Joseph Fiennes) isn’t her first kill, this one showed us that though she’s now a free woman she’s forever changed.
