Emily

Directed by Frances O’Connor
Starring Emma Mackey, Joe Alwyn, Fionn Whitehead, Alexandra Dowling

An inspiring but sorrowful story, Emily follows the journey of a young Emily Bronte, played by Emma Mackay, through life’s fragility, family ties and the burning losses of unrequited love.

We have chosen this female-led film written & directed by Frances O’Connor, as part of our weekend takeover: Rebel Rebel Artists, because Emily is the catalyst for truth in her own life, and for those around her. A beautiful representation of the power of “freedom in thought” and voice through writing. Aimed at young women and women of all ages, parents and daughters, sisters, and budding writers.
