Ammonite
Directed by Francis Lee
Produced by See-Saw Films
A tender, melancholic period romance about two women from different worlds finding solace and passion in each other against the constraints of 19th-century society.
In 1840s England, palaeontologist Mary Anning and a young woman sent by her husband to convalesce by the sea develop an intense relationship. Despite the chasm between their social spheres and personalities, Mary and Charlotte discover they can each offer what the other has been searching for: the realisation that they are not alone. It is the beginning of a passionate and all-consuming love affair that will defy all social bounds and alter the course of both lives irrevocably.
