The Gifts

1840. A woman staggers through a forest as a huge pair of wings rip themselves from her shoulders. Meanwhile, when rumours of a 'fallen angel' cause a frenzy across London, a surgeon desperate for fame develops a dangerous obsession, which places these women in peril. THE GIFTS is told through five different perspectives, exploring science, religion, the roles of women and the danger of ambition.
