Brattle Theatre Presents “The Handmaid’s Tale”

With a haunting score from Ryuichi Sakamoto, THE HANDMAID’S TALE describes a near-future United States where women have been stripped of all rights and exist only to serve the militaristic male dominated society. Natasha Richardson plays Offred, a ‘handmaid’ whose only function is to procreate with the elite of the new society.
