(from HBO's web site, March 2023) The sale of media conglomerate Waystar Royco to tech visionary Lukas Matsson moves ever closer.

A power struggle ensues as the family weighs up a future where their cultural and political weight is severely curtailed. Winner of 13 Emmys, including Outstanding Drama Series (2022, 2020).
