Title The White Olive Tree Spoiler
The ending is very sad, even sadder than in the novel. It seems that the writers treated the escape as a symbol of death. It's a pity that they didn't give them at least 10 years together like in the novel with children and in the countryside. Despite everything, one can see in this tree that they lived longer. Because after all, the tree looked like a few years, but in the novella they created a family, and here they simply left/died. I am glad that I read the novella, because the series did not give me any answer, even though in the script and in the novella they both die, their death in the novella gives some meaning to the path of their lives.
