The first season The story of the maid The premiere took place five months after Donald Trump first occupied the presidency. The last, three months of his second and conflicting period. In both cases, the series based on the homonym of Margaret Etwood seems to summarize not only collective problems. Also point of view About the abuse of power, which makes production more relevant than when.
This, despite the fact that the story led by Elizabeth Moss lost its influence, as he investigated within his anti -utopian premise. The story of how North America has become a Puritan theocracy, which makes women, a fact -fictorous woman, worried and worried about its premiere. But much more, in its consequences as a reflection of an increasingly feminine and reactionary world. Roman Margaret Etwood came to television with his intact pessimistic forecasting load. But, first of all, A corresponding notification of the dangers of extremism and ideological barbarism.
The sixth season has a significant problem of closing the free ends and the conclusion of the characters arch, which became symbolic in pop culture. Especially in June Osbourne (Moss), who, as a victim of a sadistic totalitarian state, This became a symbol of rebellion, and then revenge.
The protagonist reaches the last part, beaten by her tireless battle against Galaad, trying to balance her role as his mother and survive to guilt. This, although all the roads seem to raise it again to meet with the click of commanders and islands Nueva Belén, the most raised version of theocracy.
The revolution reaches Galaad
Thus, the new chapters are divided into two very clear ends. The former dedicated time to recall what happened in the previous seasons. As usual, delivery begins exactly at the point when the previous one concluded, without an ellipsis or months. Thus, we return to a train trip, which they share in order to reluctantly and between obvious distrust, June and serene (Ivonn Strachovski), With his son Noah in his arms.
Together they must agree on their mutual resentment in order to achieve reluctant, but necessary cooperation. In fact, a significant part of the sixth season can be generalized in this cooperation without the possibility of success, but it is necessary, between both women. Only for your final delivery, The story of the maid This provides an important place in terms of Serena. One of the most difficult characters in the series is now the narrator of the Gilead explosion inside the door. In addition, from a moral struggle that crosses those who hold the system, despite their failures.
Something, which leads to another great seasonal topic. As it will remember, in the fifth season, the commander Lawrence (Bradley Whitford) founded Nueva Belen. The island is a less repressive version of Gilead and without dragon punishments of theocracy. However, despite the obvious – the good intentions of Lawrence, something is clear for June. This is not agreed with a perverted regime that chooses what freedom to provide and when.
So for its closure, The story of the maid He returns to his main problems. June will decide to return to the country after its injured refuge in Canada in order to encounter power from its center. In addition, in order to demonstrate that the struggle for the life of women under a theocratic yoke exceeds any negotiations. Step by step, and after he left his life, he managed to raise in exile, the character becomes a complete subversive element. The turn of events that lead to the series to its final and more important stage.
Power is faced with the women of Galead
In the second half of your last season, The story of the maid Then advance to the possibility that the fall of Galaad is complete. Much more that this is an explosion from the base, one way or another, women, stolen beyond their borders. In a brilliant decision, the argument then considers that This happens when control pressure begins to approach a social outbreak.
A character that becomes a great meaning in this scenario is Aunt Lydia (Anne Daud), the head of repression in the Red House. Last season, the plot explores the cracks of the faith of the official in relation to Galaad. Natural evolution, to doubts and fears that he showed in the fifth season when Esther (Mckenna Grace), This was raped by the commander Putnem (Stephen Kunken).
But for the new chapters of Lydia, it will be necessary to deal not only with her disappointment and horror in the face of the alleged sacred methods of Galaad. Also with the fact that his active help forced de -factor mode to sweep women at a heartbreaking level. More than when, about the fault and weight, which entails her moral duty, This will make a complete and radical solution that will change the character’s move.
Distopia, which is small
But, despite the fact that he resumed his politically complex tone of his previous seasons, andThe tale of the maid Continue to endure failure. The way to build a world, which, unfortunately, is limited, and in many cases attempts against the power of its premise. In his last chapters, Galaad remains only an abstract monster, which is not known for a political description or much more than a handful of information.
Of course, that the original book does not provide real data on Gilead, especially because the narrative is achieved to the limit of his anonymous protagonist. But the series has more amplitudes and let’s not skip in other places of theocracy or at least explain in detail how the country’s repressor apparatus works. Something, which should have been a little better to understand the solution Serena, Lawrence, June and Lydia at the most important point in history.
Nevertheless, the season is held thanks to the efforts of the script in order to describe in detail the fall of the omnipotent system and a monopoly on weapons. In particular, how the collapse of the state is also part of a wider plan to return to women Galaad and their daughters, control their life. A more sensitive message than This can be expected from a series that became famous for its cruelty and graphic violence.
So The story of the maid He reaches his end, also leaving the door open to the will, the continuation written by Etwood in 2019 and whose production has already begun. Thus, his last chapters, instead of drawing a conclusion, make it clear that the general end is in the hands of Galaad’s daughters. Just like the future of the world, which was supposed to inherit.
