Vice Is Broke
Når en avdød kvinne etterlater seg en koffert full av lidenskapelige kjærlighetsbrev fra 1960- og 1970-tallet, vekkes en tapt historie til live. I The Extraordinary Miss Flower flettes mysteriene i livet hennes sammen gjennom fengslende, nesten hypnotiske musikkframtredener og dramatiserte scener fra brevene. Regissert av Iain Forsyth og Jane Pollard (kjent for 20,000 Days on Earth), med Emilíana Torrini som musikalsk nav og hovedrolle, er filmen et unikt portrett av kjærlighet, kreativitet og uoppdagete hemmeligheter.
