In 1840s England, a fossil hunter and a young woman form a forbidden bond that transforms both their lives.
Set on the windswept English coast of the 1800s, Ammonite follows fossil hunter Mary Anning, whose once-great discoveries are long behind her. Struggling to support herself and her mother, Mary reluctantly agrees to host Charlotte Murchison, the wife of a wealthy visitor. What begins as an uneasy arrangement grows into a profound, forbidden romance that challenges the boundaries of class, duty, and desire.
Rialto Recommends: Ammonite for its raw, restrained beauty and the magnetic performances of Kate Winslet and Saoirse Ronan. It’s a quietly powerful story of love, survival and recognition against the odds.
