Hannah and Arthur
Based on the story of Arthur Munby and Hannah Cullwick.
Extensive use of their diaries has been made.
Hannah, a country servant girl, and Arthur, a Cambridge educated Victorian solicitor who had a passion for photographing working women, fell in love and "enjoyed" a strange relationship, domination on his part and a certain theatricality on hers.
I explore the bizarre aspects of their romance and also the attitudes of Victorian society.
