Tamara Drewe
Synopsis
This is the contemporary tale of a Londoner returning home to the country and to her past. Tamara, once a shy, ugly teenager, has reinvented herself as a smouldering femme fatale. When she returns to her old village to sell her late mother's house, she is barely recognisable to the locals, and to her old flame Andy, and she kick-starts a trail of envy, lust, scandal and gossip wherever she goes. But has she really forgotten who she is and who she loved?
Tamara is the ultimate modern girl; but for all her independence, ambition and sex appeal it's actually the vulnerable, shy fish-out-of-water underneath that make her story funny, moving and very human.
