Agathe, hopelessly clumsy yet charming, and full of contradictions, dreams of experiencing love akin to a Jane Austen novel. Instead she finds herself stuck in desperate singlehood, spending her days working in the legendary British bookshop, Shakespeare & Co in Paris, rather than pursuing her own ambitions of becoming a novelist. But when an unexpected invitation to the Jane Austen Writers' Residency in England lands in her lap, Agathe is in for an eye-opening and life-changing experience. Encouraged to confront her insecurities and explore her true romantic, sexual and creative nature, in part thanks to her eccentric co-residents, Agathe realises it's time to stop wasting her sentimental life and take control - over both her writing aspirations, and her very own love story.Starring Camille Rutherford (Anatomy of a Fall), Pablo Pauly (The French Dispatch) and Charlie Anson (Death on the Nile), Jane Austen Wrecked My Life is an uplifting and heart-warming throwback to classic romance, with a modern sensibility, marking the directorial debut of acclaimed screenwriter Laura Piani.5 STARS Brings back to life the lost art of cinematic romance THE UPCOMING Brimming with charm and literary allusion a smart and endearing film that offers a fresh perspective on the genre SCREENZEALOTS Crackles with chemistry RADIO TIMES A charming tale of pride, prejudice, sensibility and persuasion THE CRITIC
Mary Queen of Scots is a young woman who, having grown up in France, finds a kindred spirit in her new country as a queen alone in a kingdom devastated by war.

Spurned by the country that once embraced her, Mary finds herself trapped in a corner with no one left to trust.
