DALLOWAY: First Love
|
|
Clarissa is a tree-climbing, free-spirited Victorian teenager with no interest in entertaining the slew of suitors found by her money-strapped father. But when she unexpectedly falls for a charismatic and plucky suffragette, she must decide if her heart is brave enough to forge a new path. A stand-alone rom-com prequel to Virginia Woolf’s beloved "Mrs. Dalloway." (2F/2M, 90 min.)
