Nicole Kidman Astounds in ‘Expats,’ Prime Video’s Haunting Series About Womanhood and Regret: TV Review


Set against a Hong Kong backdrop in 2014, 'Expats' is a stunning tale about three women, whose lives come apart, shifting everything forever.

Where “The Farewell” lent humor to its central character’s approach to life, “Expats” poignantly, sorrowfully examines the circumstances under which a person deserves compassion and forgiveness. She spends her days hovering over her children and trying to rein in the envy she feels toward her live-in helper, Essie (Ruby Ruiz), a middle-aged Filipina who acts as nanny and housekeeper. No-nonsense and career-oriented, Hilary and her husband, David (Jack Huston), live a child-free, polished existence, kept perfectly maintained by their helper, Puri (Amelyn Pardenilla).
