When a spoiled English girl living in 19th century India loses both parents in a cholera epidemic, she is sent back to England to live in a country mansion. The lord is a strange old man-- frail and deformed, immensely kind but so melancholy. She wishes to discover what has caused him so much sorrow and to bring joy back to the household. It all must have something to do with the screams and wails which echo through the house at night and no one wants to talk about.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A quietly restorative story about a lonely girl discovering that kindness and curiosity can unlock hidden sorrows and transform a house haunted by grief into a place of light. Wrapped in the soft textures of Victorian England and underscored by genuine warmth rather than sentimentality.
