The Handmaid's TaleOverviewIn a dystopian near-future, the totalitarian and Christian-fundamentalist government of Gilead rules the former United States amidst an ongoing civil war and subjugates women, who are not allowed to work, control money, or even read. Widespread infertility due to environmental contamination has resulted in the conscription of young fertile women—called Handmaids, according to biblical precedent—who are assigned to the homes of the elite, where they must have ritualized sex with the men in order to become pregnant and bear children for those men and their wives.First airedApril 26, 2017URL slugthe-handmaids-taleGenresUlmeDraamaPõnevikPildidPlakatTaustIkoonBännerHooajadEriosad51 episoodiHooaeg 110 episoodiHooaeg 213 episoodiHooaeg 313 episoodiHooaeg 410 episoodiHooaeg 510 episoodiHooaeg 610 episoodiNäitlejad ja meeskondNäitlejad — June Osborne / Offred — Nick Blaine — Commander Fred Waterford — Luke Bankole — Aunt Lydia — Emily / Ofglen / Ofsteven — Serena Joy Waterford — Moira — Janine / Ofwarren / Ofdaniel — Alma / Ofrobert — Dolores / Ofsamuel — Rita / Martha — Sylvia — Commander Lawrence
