Vladimir
Vladimir is een Amerikaanse dramaserie te zien bij Netflix. De serie ging in première op 5 maart 2026.
In Vladimir volgen we een gepassioneerde en roekeloze professor die volledig in de ban raakt door een nieuwe collega. Haar obsessie voor de charismatische man zet haar hele leven ondersteboven. Terwijl grenzen vervagen en geheimen aan het licht komen, riskeert ze alles om haar meest schandalige fantasieën werkelijkheid te laten worden.

The series exudes quality, I saw that immediately. The sets are beautiful (that house M lives in, so nice!), the dialogue is sharp and profound, partly because two worlds collide: the old world before #MeToo and the new world in which a professor is canceled because he had relationships with students—admittedly ten years ago, but their stories are coming out now. That professor is M's husband.
While her husband is under fire, M. herself begins to harbor an erotic fantasy about her new colleague at the university, Vladimir, a young father who also writes books. M.'s daughter symbolizes the Woke ideology in the story, I suspect. How significant her role will be is not yet clear to me.
I wanted to read Julia May Jonas's book, but I couldn't get past the confusing beginning and so I sold it secondhand without reading it. I regretted that afterwards, so I'm going to watch the series at my leisure and see what I missed.
