HBO has dropped the My Brilliant Friend Season 4 teaser trailer for the upcoming final installment of the hit Italian drama based on Elena Ferrante’s 2015 novel The Story of The Lost Child.
“The series follows Elena Greco and the most important friend in her life, Raffaella ‘Lila’ Cerullo. After meeting as children in 1950s Naples, their story goes on to cover over 60 years, exploring the mystery of Lila — Elena’s brilliant best friend and, in a way, her worst enemy,” reads the show’s newest logline. “Season 4 delves into the adult lives of Elena and Lila. They find themselves entangled in the turmoil of Italy in the late 1980s, nearing the end of decades of political violence and social unrest. Amid motherhood and career demands, amid betrayals, threats, disappearances, and natural disasters, Elena and Lila once again reside in the same neighborhood.”
