True romance about the love affair between socialite and author Vita Sackville-West (Gemma Arterton, Their Finest) and literary icon Virginia Woolf (Elizabeth Debicki, Widows). Co-stars Isabella Rossellini.
"The year is 1922. Though happily married, Vita is as notorious for her dalliances with women and iconoclastic attitudes toward gender as she is famous for her aristocratic ancestry and writerly success. Virginia, meanwhile, is a celebrated writer, publisher, and member of the Bloomsbury Group, those innovative moderns already revolutionising literature. When Vita receives an invitation to Bloomsbury, she is elated at the thought of meeting the enigmatic Woolf and, not surprisingly perhaps, becomes obsessed with the notion of seducing her. Between Virginia's mental health struggles and Vita's impulsiveness — not to mention the concern of their husbands, families, and mutual friends - their romance is bound to be tumultuous. Yet tumult can fuel creativity — Vita's singular persona will eventually be channelled into one of Virginia's greatest works." (Toronto International Film Festival)
