Letter from an Unknown Woman

Part of Too Much: Melodrama on Film

Join us before for a talk from Depot's Chair of Trustees, Robert Senior, as an introduction to Depot's major season on melodrama: Melodrama on Film

In early 20th-century Vienna, Stefan Brand is about to leave the city because he faces a duel that he wants no part of.

However, before he can do so, he gets an anonymous love letter that changes his life.

Though Stefan is moved by what he reads, he doesn't realise that it was written by Lisa Berndle, a young woman he has known but disregarded for most of his life.

When he finally figures out who his admirer is, it may be too late to prevent a tragedy.

'Does the job of the perfect melodrama and moves the audience to tears' - David Parkinson, Empire
