Oscar nominee Jones and 2x Golden Globe nominee Woodley star in this dual-narrative love story set in the French Riviera and London during the 1960s and present day. The story follows Ellie (Jones), a young female journalist in contemporary London who uncovers a series of love letters in the archives which tell the story of an intensely romantic but star-crossed affair in the 1960s between Jennifer Stirling (Woodley) and Anthony O’Hare (Turner). As Ellie is drawn into the story, she becomes obsessed with discovering the lovers’ identities and finding out how their love story ends.

Pete Czernin and Graham Broadbent of Blueprint Pictures are producing alongside Simone Urdl and Jennifer Weiss of The Film Farm StudioCanal, who fully financed the film. Jones and Woodley are both executive producing. Callum Turner, Joe Alwyn, Nabhaan Rizwan also star. Nick Payne and Esta Spalding adapted the feature.

Svensk is releasing the movie in theaters in Scandinavia on July 30. A release will follow in France later this year. The film will be on Netflix everywhere else from July 23.
