Description

Based on a true story, Maud (Sally Hawkins), a bright-eyed, intelligent woman, hunched with crippled hands from arthritis, yearns to be independent and to live away from her overly protective family. She escapes her solitary existence in her aunt's home through her art, dreaming away the days, until in her early 30s she finds, and answers, an advertisement for a housekeeper, for 40 year old bachelor Everett Lewis (Ethan Hawke). Everett realizes he hardly got what he bargained for, but over time, he starts to need Maud. Maudie's determination for her art, along with her partnership with Everett, blossoms into a career as a famous folk artist, bringing them closer together in ways they never imagined.

Press

"What shines through is the beauty of Guy Godfree's cinematography - the light has a lovely, soft stillness to it, like a painting - and a remarkable performance by Hawkins, whose impossibly wide smile seems to bring the sun." - Seattle Times

"An oddly affecting love story about burying the hurt and trudging forward in the face of pain and finding your own version of happiness." - Detroit News

"This wistful character study of a lonely woman and a lonely man who find each other in coastal Nova Scotia has a winning, twee charm." - Star Tribune
