A
contemporary fairy tale revolving around the unlikely of friendship
between a reclusive young woman with dreams of being a children’s book
author and a cantankerous widower, set against the backdrop of a
beautiful garden in the heart of London.
Bella Brown (Jessica Brown Findlay) is a beautifully quirky young
woman who dreams of writing and illustrating a successful children’s
book. When she is forced by her landlord to deal with her neglected
garden or face eviction, she meets her nemesis, match and mentor in
Alfie Stephenson (Oscar-nominated actor, Tom Wilkinson), a grumpy,
loveless, rich old man who lives next door and happens to be an amazing
horticulturalist.
