On a black background, we see a woman wearing a billowing white dress raise her arms and head up to the sky. The dress forms the image of what could be interpreted as a flower.

About The Extraordinary Miss Flower

Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard, the team behind 20,000 Days on Earth, return with another hugely creative biographical film to charm and intrigue audiences.

When Geraldine Flower passed away, her family uncovered a secret cache of letters containing declarations of love from suitors around the globe, hinting at the possibility of a life of espionage. Taking inspiration, Icelandic singer-songwriter Emilíana Torrini recorded an album that forms the spine of this filmic fever dream. The songs and images bring these amorous words and the beguiling Miss Flower thrillingly back to life, with supporting roles for Nick Cave, Richard Ayoade, Alice Lowe, Siggi Baldursson, Mark Monero, Niall Murphy and Angus Sampson.
