British costume drama inspired by the life of Emily Brontë
Emily Brontë was one of the most famous and provocative writers in history. The film shows that Emily was ahead of her time, with a phenomenal role by new talent Emma Mackey(Sex Education, Death on the Nile).
Emily Brontë(Emma Mackey) does not fit into the straitjacket imposed on her by her family and the bourgeoisie of Yorkshire. She is a rebel and a maverick, a young woman trying to be herself. When she unexpectedly discovers love, it intensifies not only her passion but also her desire for freedom. Encouraged by her brother Branwell(Fionn Whitehead), Emily chooses her own path and finds the inspiration for a timeless masterpiece: Wuthering Heights.
