Avrum | Ep. 1 | Uprising
We have watched from afar as teams encountered horrors in the chill of the far north and Patagonia, we have followed the terrible events surrounding an artifact, unearthed the journals of long lost Jesuits in China, and have followed the claustrophobic happenings aboard the Research Vessel Iluka. Next we will travel to Europe in the 1600's to share the story of Avrum.
During 1648, beset by the terror of the Cossack Uprising, young Avrum quickly finds his world lost to turmoil as his family and local Jewish community is decimated.
Episodes 2+ are only available at the Initiate Tier ($10USD) and above.
