Award -winning series features a new approach to represent fundamental elements of the Asian country, where the plot occurs; Lisa Manoban is part of the production cast
HBO’s “The White Lotus” series features an unprecedented approach in its third year, adopting a new proposal for production. The musical theme was altered to reflect the spirituality of the new episodes, which unfold a country where Buddhism plays a central role.
The narrative revolves around a family that decides to vacation in a luxury resort, with their daughter showing interest in theology. In addition to them, the plot includes a couple and a group of friends who gather in order to reconnect themselves. The series addresses topics such as yoga, massages and tensions that arise among guests, including rivalries and tax issues.
Carrie Coon, one of the protagonists, emphasizes the importance of exploiting identity and impermanence, concepts that are deeply rooted in Buddhist philosophy and permeate history. “The White Lotus” continues his tradition of social satire, reflecting on the lives of the privileged and their failures, in a scenario marked by increasing inequality.
With a total of 15 awards the series maintains its appeal with the public, featuring smart dialogues and a cast that renews itself every season. New characters, such as Belinda, return to enrich the narrative with elements of Thai culture. Lalisa Manoban, a member of Girlgroup Blackpink, is also one of the new names that make up the season. The Thai artist makes her film debut while representing the culture of her people.
Between comic and tragic moments, “The White Lotus” reaffirms the idea that everyone, regardless of their financial condition, keeps secrets. The series continues to explore the complexity of human relations in a luxurious environment, revealing the nuances of the rich’s lives and their imperfections.
