A young girl is sent away to work as a handmaiden for an orphaned heiress with instructions from her crook family to steal the woman’s fortune; beginning a tale of deception and sensual discovery that unravels with irresistible velocity.

Living up to Wook’s reputation for gorgeously designed, twisted masterpieces, this beautifully-styled period drama is a creative adaptation of Sarah Waters’ 2002 novel The Fingersmith, transported from Victorian England to mid 20th Century, Japanese-occupied Korea.
