Tell It to the Bees
Synopsis
Gripped by a failing marriage and the responsibilities of having a young son, Lydia finds solace in her growing bond with the town’s recently returned female doctor Jean. But this is the 1950s in a post-WWII rural Scotland, and the womens’ relationship prompts raised eyebrows in their provincial circles.
A heart-wrenching portrait of a love against all odds.
