Director: Alex Huston Fischer and Eleanor Wilson
Starring: Olivia Colman, Alexander Skarsgard, Richard E Grant
On the outskirts of a village by the sea lives a fisherwoman – she is single, smelly and perpetually ridiculed. One day, fed up with her stuffy, small-minded neighbours she commissions herself a husband to be made from wicker. In an otherwise conservative village, this unconventional romance sparks outrage, jealousy and chaos.
This charming fable strikes the right balance between naughty and nice with deftly deployed salty humour.
