Lady Isabella dreams of fame. When local talent show Stately Stars turns up on her doorstep, she seizes her chance to shine. Revelling in the attention of a camera crew she’s hired to document her every move, the lonely aristocrat’s hunger for recognition soon spirals into something stranger. Samuel Abrahams’ off-beat mockumentary blends satirical comedy with magical realism, anchored by a larger-than-life performance from Sian Clifford as a woman desperate to be seen.
