Hope

2016 · 90 min

A buttoned-up institutional battle of wills that keeps tipping into wry, uncomfortable comedy as head and heart collide.

Overview: The Hope Affair is the story of the fascinating affair between an impassioned woman in the midst of an attack on a conservative male bastion and an éminence grise from that same men’s world. An affair that pitches head against heart. An affair that completely spins out of control. And that can be quite funny.
How it feels: Satirical, tense, romantic and earnest. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Power, gender, politics, obsession
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
