The upcoming series is part of the lineup of Apple Original series which are set to release this year. The show is reportedly going to explore themes of parenthood and the horrors beyond it.

The tale starts with Apollo Kagwa settling into his new life with his son, but soon enough, his wife begins to act strangely and loses interest in their young son. Apollo diagnoses her with postpartum depression based on her symptoms, but he soon learns the real cause of her condition.

The official synopsis as per IMDb reads:

"When Apollo Kagwa's father disappeared, he left his son a box of books and strange recurring dreams. Now Apollo is a father himself--and as he and his wife, Emma, settle into their new lives as parents, exhaustion and anxiety start to take their toll."

It further continues:

Apollo's old dreams return and Emma begins acting odd. At first Emma seems to be exhibiting signs of postpartum depression. But before Apollo can do anything to help, Emma commits a horrific act and vanishes. Thus begins Apollo's quest to find a wife and child who are nothing like he'd imagined. His odyssey takes him to a forgotten island, a graveyard full of secrets, a forest where immigrant legends still live, and finally back to a place he thought he had lost forever.

Apple Studios, Annapurna Television, and De La Revolución Films have taken charge of producing the show. It features some well-known actors in key roles, including LaKeith Stanfield, Adina Porter, and Clark Backo. The series is directed by Melina Matsoukas, a music director with extensive expertise. She has directed and executive produced The Changeling.
