MUMBAI: Home to the biggest international TV shows, Star World and Star World HD, are all set to air the fifth season of the Emmy and Golden Globe award winning series Homeland starting 18 March 2016 every Monday to Friday at 9 pm.
The series picks up two years after the Season 4 finale with Carrie Mathison’s ill-fated tenure as Islamabad station chief. Struggling to reconcile her guilt and disillusionment with years of working on the front lines in the war on terror, Carrie finds herself in a self-imposed exile in Berlin, estranged from the CIA and working as the head of security for a German philanthropist. Season 5 is set against the concrete jungle of Germany with a fast paced story line that touches upon many current topics ranging from the Charlie Hebbdo shooting to the European migrant crises. With a strong whodunit plot twist and Carrie now facing the line of fire from CIA, the audience is all set to witness deception, drama, action and adventure.
Produced by Fox 21 Television Studios, Homeland was developed by Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon, and is based on the original Israeli series Prisoners of War by Gideon Raff. The show has won over 35 awards across its past four seasons.
