I've been waiting since 2019 for Lulu Wang's follow-up to her excellent feature debut, The Farewell, and I am delighted to say that her new Prime series Expats does not disappoint. Although it’s certainly slight in its approach to modern-day womanhood, Wang allows the performances and writing to breathe every step of the way. It's a nuanced show in all the right ways, and it leaves the viewers with a dark sense of realism in nearly every frame. Episode Five alone makes its slow-burn nature a worthwhile experience.
