and Stephen Fry. It centres on Lady Susan Vernon (Beckinsale), who seeks refuge
at her in-laws estate while rumors about her private life circulate through

daughter. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2016. It
is scheduled to be released on May 13, 2016, by Roadside Attractions and Amazon
