The Forest of Arden provides a safe haven to political exiles. But whilst its leafy canopy may shelter them from the world’s problems, it proves a chaotic playground for affairs of the heart. Romantic ambitions conflict and entangle as disguises, misdirected affections, and their own natures create riotous fun. Can they battle through the misunderstandings and find freedom in love? Director Carole Lovett relocates this joyous tale of empowerment in the face of injustice to Europe’s troubled shores during Hitler’s invasion.
