About The Far Country
Just after the second world war, an English girl from a sheltered background, Jennifer Morton, falls in love with Czech migrant Carl Zlinter. But Carl is not all that he seems and even Jennifer is not privy to his dark secret.
Directed by Nevil Shute, The Far Country leans on a strong ensemble — Michael York, Sigrid Thornton, Brenda Addie — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1987.
