Wicked Little Letters

A 1920’s English seaside town bears witness to a dark and absurd scandal in this riotous Mystery Comedy!

Based on a stranger-than-fiction true story, Wicked Little Letters follows two neighbours: deeply conservative local, Edith Swan (Olivia Colman) & rowdy Irish migrant Rose Gooding (Jessie Buckley).

When Edith and fellow residents begin to receive wicked letters full of unintentionally hilarious profanity, foulmouthed Rose is charged with the crime!

The anonymous letters prompt a national uproar, and a trial ensues… However, as the town’s women – led by Police Officer Gladys Moss (Anjana Vasan) – begin to investigate the crime themselves, they suspect something is amiss, and Rose may not be the culprit after all!
