Summerland is a 2020 British drama film written and directed by Jessica Swale, starring Gemma Arterton, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Lucas Bond, Dixie Egerickx, Siân Phillips, Penelope Wilton and Tom Courtenay. Arterton plays as a reclusive writer, resigned to a solitary life on the seaside cliffs of Southern England while World War II rages across the channel. She opens her front door one day to find she’s to adopt a young London evacuee named Frank, but she’s resistant. It’s not long, however, before the two realize they have more in common in their pasts than Alice had assumed. This is an intensely emotional story of love’s endurance in trying times.
