After his father's death, Louis Wain (Benedict Cumberbatch, The Imitation Game) is left alone to look after his five sisters and his mother.
Three things set him on a more colourful path: he’s offered a job as an illustrator by a prestigious magazine editor, he meets and falls in love with his sisters’ new governess (Claire Foy), and the pair of them adopt a stray cat they name Peter, whose presence inspires him to take a new and extraordinary artistic turn.
Join us on Wednesday 29 December for a special preview screening features a recorded Q&A with Benedict Cumberbatch, Claire Foy and director Will Sharpe, hosted by Edith Bowman.
