“The only thing I know for certain, is that there’s no reason I should be alive, and yet, I am,” says Hadas Yaron’s character, Mila Kurc, in the trailer for Hulu‘s new historical drama, We Were the Lucky Ones, premiering March 28.
Adapted from author Georgia Hunter’s 2017 bestselling novel of the same name — and inspired by the true story of Hunter’s ancestors — We Were the Lucky Ones takes place in 1939 and follows the Kurcs, a Polish Jewish family who get “separated at the start of WWII,” according to Hulu’s description of the show.
“The series follows them across continents as they do everything in their power to survive, and to reunite. We Were the Lucky Ones demonstrates how in the face of the twentieth century’s darkest moment, the human spirit can endure and even thrive. The series is a tribute to the triumph of hope and love against all odds.”
Along with Yaron, We Were the Lucky Ones also stars Joey King, Logan Lerman, Henry Lloyd-Hughes, and Amit Rahav, with showrunner Erica Lipez and Hunter joining as a co-executive producer. Here’s how to watch the new Hulu Original series, plus how to stream the premiere episodes for free.
