Germany German (Deutsch)

In einem Vorort von Washington, D.C. in den 1980er Jahren leben zwei KGB-Agenten unter falschem Namen und spionieren im Zentrum des Klassenfeindes. Im Mittelpunkt stehen die KGB-Spione Phillip und Elizabeth Jennings. Eigentlich ist ihre Ehe arrangiert, doch von Tag zu Tag verlieben sich die beiden tatsächlich immer mehr ineinander. Ihre Beziehung wird allerdings immer komplizierter, je stärker sich der Kalte Krieg aufheizt. Dass die beiden inzwischen zwei Kinder, haben, die vollkommen in die amerikanische Gesellschaft eingebunden sind und nichts von der wahren Identität ihrer Eltern wissen, macht die Sache nicht einfacher.

Italy Italian (Italiano)

La serie ambientata a Washington nei primi anni Ottanta racconta la storia di Phillip (Matthew Rhys) ed Elizabeth Jennings (Keri Russel) due agenti del KGB. Nati, cresciuti e addestrati nell’Unione Sovietica, sono stati mandati quindici anni prima in incognito negli Stati Uniti con l’ordine di spacciarsi per una giovane coppia di americani. Phillip, dopo tanti anni vissuti in America si sente ogni giorno più distante dai princìpi della missione accettata anni prima, al contrario di Elizabeth ancora fortemente sostenitrice della causa comunista. Il telefilm è stato creato da Joe Weisberg (Falling Skies), a sua volta ex-agente CIA diventato sceneggiatore.
