Many Beautiful Things

From the film’s website:

 

Many Beautiful Things plunges viewers into the complex age of Victorian England to meet Lilias Trotter, a daring young woman who defied all
norms by winning the favor of England’s top art critic, John Ruskin.
In an era when women were thought incapable of producing high art,
Ruskin promised that her work could be “immortal.” But with her legacy
on the line, Lilias made a stunning decision that bids us to question the
limits of sacrifice. As Lilias journeys to French Algeria in the late 1800’s
to pioneer work with women and children as a single missionary,
viewers are left to wonder, “Could you abandon a dream to pursue
your true calling?”
 

Featuring the voices of Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey)
and John Rhys-Davies (Lord of the Rings, Indiana Jones).
