Based off the award winning graphic novel set ‘ESSEX COUNTY’ by Jeff Lemire.
How loss, betrayal, and trauma can impact generations and how redemption can be found through human connection.
The five-part limited series tells the story of four disparate characters – old Lou (Stephen McHattie), young Lester (Finlay Wojtak-Hissong), country nurse Anne (Molly Parker) and stoic farmer Ken (Brian J. Smith) – linked through their bloodlines. Kevin Durand also stars as Jimmy Lebeuf.
Where does a young boy turn when his whole world suddenly disappears? What turns two brothers from an unstoppable team into a pair of bitterly estranged loners? How does the simple-hearted care of one middle-aged nurse reveal the scars of an entire community, and can anything heal the wounds caused by a century of deception?
