About

In 1917, two children take a photograph, which is soon believed by some to be the first scientific evidence of the existence of fairies. Based on the true story of the Cottingley Fairies.
Sun-dappled English meadows and soft Victorian lace create a dreamlike haze that masks a growing sense of deception. This whimsical period piece pivots from childhood wonder into a sharp examination of how easily people believe what they desperately want to see.
