Greek Salad

Tom (Aliocha Schneider) and his sister Mia (Megan Northam) – the children of Xavier and Wendy from the L’Auberge Espagnole film trilogy – inherit a building in Athens when their grandfather dies. Tom, a young startup trained in New York, joins his sister in Greece to manage the family estate.

He discovers Mia – who pretends to be an Erasmus student – is in fact a rebel activist who lies to the whole family. But their differences of opinion and lifestyle will make the sharing of the inheritance very complicated.

They will find themselves – like their parents 25 years earlier – living with young people from all over Europe. It is this collective life that will finally help them to get closer. This French drama will spotlight European youth and the experiences and problems they face today.

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel – Season five

The epic, hilarious, and emotional return of this beloved series takes fans through time for a spectacular send-off, featuring the return of some familiar faces. In the fifth and final season, Midge (Rachel Brosnahan) finds herself closer than ever to the success she’s dreamed of, only to discover that closer than ever is still so far away.

The Son

This new drama – based on Florian Zeller’s stage play of the same name – centers on Peter (Hugh Jackman), whose hectic life with his infant and new partner Beth (Vanessa Kirby) is upended when his ex-wife Kate (Laura Dern) appears at his door to discuss their son Nicholas (Zen McGrath), who is now a teenager. The young man has been missing school for months and is deeply troubled.

Peter strives to take care of Nicholas as he would have wanted his own father (Anthony Hopkins) to have taken care of him while juggling his and Beth’s new son, and at work an offer of a dream position in Washington.

However, by reaching for the past to correct its mistakes, he loses sight of how to hold onto Nicholas in the present.
