1657. Fanny and John Lye and their young son Arthur live lives of Puritan stricture on a remote Shropshire farm in a valley beside a forest. Fanny is resigned to the trudging obedience of her life until the arrival of a young couple - Thomas and Rebecca - turns her world on its head. On the run from the law, the pair bring with them new ideas about religion and personal freedoms.
Authenticity is key to every aspect of Fanny Lye Deliver’d, which expertly frames the turbulent post-Civil War period through the eyes of one ordinary woman (Maxine Peake in an exceptional performance). Writer/director Thomas Clay has spent the best part of a decade crafting his film, and all that attention to detail is writ large on screen.
Filmography: Soi Cowboy (2008), The Great Ecstasy of Robert Carmichael (2005).
The film contains disturbing scenes.
