STEPHEN FREARS TO DIRECT THE ANARCHY 18TH CENTURY SET SERIES ON EAST INDIA COMPANY BASED ON WILLIAM DALRYMPLE BESTSELLING EPIC BOOK

  THE ANARCHY SERIES  
TO BE DIRECTED BY STEPHEN FREARS
Really could not imagine a better director for it: as Variety reports, Stephen Frears is set to direct THE ANARCHY epic series, an adaptation of William Dalrymple's book “The Anarchy: The Relentless Rise of the East India Company”, a historical epic which chronicles how back in the 18th century the East India Company, described as a dangerously unregulated start-up operating from a small London office, executed the takeover of the entire Indian subcontinent, which at the time constituted more than one-fourth of the world’s GDP.  The series will be shot in UK and Asia for Wiip global studios.

  1. La serie dell'anarchia è un film intenso e provocatorio che esplora il caos sociale e l'antiautoritarismo con uno stile crudo e viscerale. Un'esperienza visiva potente e fuori dagli schemi.
    Buona giornata

    1. No, this is not actually anti-autathorian but how East Indian Company established its dictatorship over the subcontinent. It is about greedy millionaires who wanted to own the whole world, very similar to our present situation.

  2. Sounds fantastic whether it is a documentary, docudrama or a dramatization
