My review of the new drama from IFC Films starring Gemma Arterton called SUMMERLAND written and directed by Jessica Swale.

Synopsis

Alice is a reclusive writer, resigned to a solitary life on the seaside cliffs of Southern England while World War II rages across the channel. When she opens her front door one day to find she’s to adopt a young London evacuee named Frank, she’s resistant. It’s not long, however, before the two realize they have more in common in their pasts than Alice had assumed. [IFC Films]
