A hard man is good to find. Olivia Colman, Alexander Skarsgård, Elizabeth Debicki, and Peter Dinklage star in this audaciously comedic tale, written and directed by Australia's own Alex Huston Fischer and Eleanor Wilson.
On the outskirts of a village by the sea, lives a Fisherwoman (Colman); smelly, single and perpetually ridiculed. One day, fed up with her stuffy, small-minded neighbours, she commissions the local basketmaker (Dinklage) to weave her the perfect husband (Skarsgård) out of wicker. Their unconventional romance sparks outrage, jealousy and chaos.
Adapting Ursula Wills-Jones’s 2008 short story, this Sundance-premiering twist on a period love story is at once ingenious and charmingly irreverent, using its whimsical premise to critique small-mindedness, superstition and overzealous conservatism.
