In present day London a young man explores his family history, asking searching questions of his elderly cousins. But as he asks more and more about a woman called Anne - are his motives as simple as they seem?
In summer 1939, Anne discovers some innocent-seeming recordings of meetings - but a tangled web of dark secrets begins to unfurl.
A star-studded cast includes Romola Garai, Bill Nighy, Jenny Agutter, David Tennant, Jeremy Northam, Christopher Lee, Corin Redgrave and Julie Christie.
