## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

A film that thinks about what happens when a queer man and a straight woman decide to shack up in the English countryside. Dora and Lytton begin an unconventional, decades-long friendship, even as she marries someone else. It’s the kind of movie that makes you wonder if everyone secretly wanted to live at Downton Abbey.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, tender
