Noah Berlatsky: Hulu's 'Handmaid's Tale' Season 5 is both incredibly timely and a missed opportunity - NBCNewsTHINK
The series shows, with passion and insight, how reducing women to their pregnancies is part and parcel of stripping them of rights and power.
The first four seasons of the show follow handmaid June Osborne as she endures and finally escapes the clutches of Gilead leader Fred Waterford and his wife, Serena Joy . At the beginning of season five, June and Serena are in Canada. June is a refugee. Serena’s legal status is uncertain, but she retains ties to Gilead and its supporters abroad.
June in Canada is free — mostly. Serena, in contrast, has become more restricted — not least because she has become pregnant. Serena thought she was infertile, and is thrilled to find she can bear a child. But Gilead, and Gilead’s influence, can be difficult to escape. To its citizens and supporters, to be pregnant is to become a resource of the state.
