“You have to find the mole in our embassy.” Max has revealed an official trailer for a new Polish political thriller spy series called The Eastern Gate, ready for streaming (with episodes weekly) on Max later this month. This is a Polish production in the Polish language about events in Poland, but it’s produced as a Max Original Series with episodes launching weekly. After losing her pregnancy while in action, Ewa, a Polish spy, wants to withdraw from the secret service to start a normal life. When her lover is exposed by Russian intelligence & disappears, she goes on a rescue mission. The suspense thriller series explores the high stakes battle between intelligence agencies on the global stage during an emerging conflict. The narrative unfolds during the spring of 2021 – in Belarus (Minsk), Poland, and Russia. The title (aka The Easterngate) refers to the Suwałki Gap, which is a critical spot just along the border between Poland and Lithuania, both NATO member states, as well as Belarus and Russia. The Suwałki Gap is widely recognized as one of Europe’s top three hotspots, a critical territory for protecting NATO’s eastern flank & maintaining regional stability. Starring Lena Góra as Ewa, Karol Pocheć, Andrzej Konopka, Leszek Lichota, Bartek Topa, Piotr Pacek, & Eliza Rycembel. This looks unsettling and compelling – a very tense Polish spy series to watch. // Continue Reading ›
