A lively and charming nineteen-year-old person from Hampshire, Emma Wintertowne moves to London to marry the dashing politician, Sir Walter Pole. Before she can do this, however, she dies. For most young ladies, this would seem to be an insuperable obstacle; however, Miss Wintertowne is made of stronger stuff. She is raised from the dead, marries her fiancé, and returns to a life of dinner parties and dancing. However, something seems to have gone wrong with the magic that resurrected her. It has made her increasingly listless, eccentric, and tired. It has filled her life with horrors and her speech with nonsense. It has made her mad. And being mad is a very difficult thing to reconcile with being the wife of a Minister of the Crown, although not altogether impossible.

Australian newcomer Alice Englert is a rising international talent. Growing up in a thespian family, she has spent many of her formative years immersing herself in film and has an intensity and on screen presence well beyond her years.

In 2006, she made her film debut in film visionary Jane Campion’s 2006 short feature The Water Diary. Alice has since played lead roles in four feature films; Singularity, (opposite Josh Hartnett), Ginger and Rosam alongside Elle Fanning, Christina Hendricks and Annette Benning, novel adaptation Beautiful Creatures, with Jeremy Irons and Emma Thompson and In Fear, for which Alice used her considerable improvisation skills.

On television, Alice has appeared alongside Jamie Dornan in Channel 4's New Worlds.
