From directors Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard (20,000 DAYS ON EARTH), THE EXTRAORDINARY MISS FLOWER brings to life the remarkable story of Geraldine Flower and the discovery of a suitcase full of passionate, heartfelt letters sent to her in the 60s and 70s that inspired acclaimed Icelandic singer/songwriter Emilíana Torrini to return to the studio and record an entire album of new songs. The film takes the form of a series of specially designed performances of these songs by Emilíana and her band, combined with dramatic scenes and readings from the letters by well-known actors and musicians including Caroline Catz, Richard Ayoade, Siggi Baldursson, Nick Cave, Alice Lowe, Mark Monero, Niall Murphy and Angus Sampson.
“Destined to find an eager cult audience for its psychedelic charms.” Deadline
