Here is another interesting period set project coming from Ukraine, and I think the ladies will like it: costume series
LOVE IN CHAINS (Krepostnaya) which already has 24 episodes of the first season streaming over at
Amazon Prime (I hear there is already a widespread bingecraze around it).
Kateryna Kovalchuk plays Kateryna a beautiful and clever girl who was, by the will of her godmother, raised as a lady of noble blood. But for the whole world, she is only someone else's property, a bondmaid of the richest landowner in Nizhyn - Chervinskyi.

The series, originally released in Ukraine a year ago, where it became their record breaking telenovella, was also a hit in Poland and Russia. I hear the show itself was filled with outstandingly rich and opulent costumes. There is also a second season bringing the total number of episodes up to 48 with the third and fourth season already ordered to be released sometime in 2021 when it is expected that the number of episodes will be close to 100. After the success of the series, a line of books inspired by the story, were released in Russian language. You can check out the trailer for the series below with English subtitles. What do you think, will you binge it?

What awaits Kateryna at the end of such a terrible and exhausting path

Those costumes are fabulous! She may have been seen as someone's property, but at least she beautiful, clever, and has gorgeous gowns to wear. :) This makes me thing of My Big Fat Greek Wedding when the mother says that the father may be the head of the household, but she is the neck that decides which way that head turns.
ReplyDeleteSuch were the sad lives of Russian serfs back in the days...
DeleteIt totally looks binge-worthy! I'll have to log into my amazon prime account and add it to my watch list. The costumes do look incredible!
ReplyDeleteAnd I did not even show half of it as I did not have enough space for all the gown pics :) I've heard of people who binged all 24 eps in a week.
