Synopsis:
You are cordially invited to a wine-soaked sex romp set in the Italian countryside. The Decameron is a soapy dark comedy that examines the all-too-timely theme of class struggles in the season of a pandemic. In the year 1348, the Black Death strikes hard in the city of Florence, and a handful of nobles retreat with their servants to a grand villa to wait out the plague with a lavish holiday. But as social rules wear thin, a scramble for survival ensues, brought to life by a cast of characters both cunning and outrageous.
Saoirse-Monica Jackson
Eagle-eyed viewers will notice Saoirse-Monica Jackson as one of the characters. Saoirse-Monica Jackson became famous with her fantastic work on Netflix’s Derry Girls alongside Nicola Coughlan, who became Penelope Featherington in Netflix’s Bridgerton.
