Expats (Season 1)

Expats (2024) is a six-part drama you can watch online on iFILM. Set among wealthy foreigners in Hong Kong, it's directed by Lulu Wang and led by Nicole Kidman.

Margaret (Kidman) is a mother of three whose life caves in after one irreversible loss. Around her orbit Hilary, a neighbor in a failing marriage, and Mercy, a young Korean American woman whose single mistake binds the three of them together. The show lives on the thin line between blame and accountability, while the 2014 street protests gather force outside their apartment windows.

Adapted from Janice Y.K. Lee's novel "The Expatriates," the limited series was shot by Lulu Wang of The Farewell. Its real strength isn't plot twists but the way it watches privilege, domestic workers and the people wealthy expats tend not to see. Stream all episodes of Expats (2024) online on iFILM.
