Carrington
A love story so unusual it has to be true.
Directed by Christopher Hampton
Produced by Cinéa, Freeway Films
A tender, intellectually engaged portrait of an unconventional lifelong bond between two artists that defies conventional romantic categories.
Painter Dora Carrington develops an intimate but extremely complex bond with writer Lytton Strachey. Though Lytton is a homosexual, he is enchanted by the mysterious Dora and they begin a lifelong friendship that has strangely romantic undertones. Eventually, Lytton and Dora decide to live together, despite the fact that the latter has fallen in love with military man Ralph Partridge, whom she plans to marry.
