This is a stunning film, the Lincolnshire coastline is shown in all its evocative and stunning beauty. Fantastic cinematography creates tension and changing moods. The acting is first class. This is a difficult watch but the story it tells is bold, strong and very relevant to our lives today. Set in 1555 this is a powerful treatment of an oppressed woman's struggle against a powerful, toxic man and the treatment of refugees in the past both of which themes are as relevant today as they were in 1555. I intended to give this film 10/10 but sadly my finger slipped to 9 and I didn't notice in time.
