★★★★★

This was a fantastic adaptation of The Handmaid's Tale. The art style was absolutely perfect for the story and it was seamlessly told in this condensed version.

trigger warnings: rape, kidnapping, torture (both psychological and physical), police brutality, a totalitarian government, institutionalized misogyny, murder, infant mortality of all kinds, and suicide (trigger warnings taken from https://alphamom.com/parenting/big-kid/handmaids-tale-book-appropriate-teen/).
