Directed by Justin Kurzel, known for his work in films like Assassin’s Creed and Macbeth, the series is positioned as one of the most prominent at the Berlin festival. Its high profile underscores the growing relevance of literary adaptations in modern television, where the aim is to capture both the nuances of the original text and the attention of a massive audience.
