Description
Fife, 1790. Two women are forced to publicly repent in church: one for adultery, the other for breaching the Sabbath. Wealthy housewife Florrie and salt serf Eliza form a quick and unusual bond over their mutual humiliation. And when Florrie's husband decides she must accompany him on a trade venture to Iceland, she insists Eliza comes as her maid. Far from home, the two women grow ever closer. Then Florrie's husband reveals his sinister plan: he will leave her in Iceland, banished for the shame she has cast upon him.
