FILM: Shalborne (15)

A beautiful new drama made by local actor/director Caroline Corrie and shot in wild and stunning locations across Devon.

In 1905 a cruel and lonely marriage to Lord Bartlett becomes too much for Helen. She escapes across Dartmoor, taking refuge in a deserted barn where she is discovered by Lord Shalborne, who offers her shelter.

All intentions of escape are put on hold as Helen and Shalborne allow a connection to flourish between them, but when Shalborne unwittingly mortgages his estate to invest in one of Bartlett’s corrupt investments, Helen becomes a pawn in a gentleman’s game. Risking everything to change her circumstances, Helen finds that courage may not be enough to challenge the patriarchal ideals of her time.
