Manchester: Hedda with pre-recorded Q&A with writer-director Nia DaCosta and actors Tessa Thompson and Nina Hoss.
A provocative re-imagining of Henrik Ibsen’s classic play, Hedda follows enigmatic newlywed Hedda (Tessa Thompson), who is outwardly composed but hiding a simmering discontent that threatens to explode when the brilliant and charismatic Eileen Lovberg (Nina Hoss) re-enters her life. Over the course of a raucous party, the high and low of society endure the consequences of this dangerous and unknowable woman yearning for a past love. What ensues is a ruthless game of manipulation, where lust, jealousy, and betrayal collide. Written and directed by Nia DaCosta, Hedda is a daring exploration of power, desire, and a woman’s refusal to be confined.
Join Reclaim The Frame for special screenings of Hedda across the UK, featuring an exclusive pre-recorded Q+A with cast and crew in select venues.
