“Set in a small town in 1959 England, it is the story of a woman who decides, against polite but ruthless local opposition, to open a bookshop, a decision which becomes a political minefield.”
The Bookshop screenplay was written by Isabel Coixet, who also directed the film, and adapted from a novel by Penelope Fitzgerald.

The Bookshop is out in cinemas on June 29th 2018.
