The Beguiled

In 1864, during the American Civil War, a young woman gathering mushrooms in the Virginia woods finds a severely wounded Union soldier. His name is John McBurney, and he cannot continue on his way.

Within its walls, the presence of a man from the opposing side disrupts the routine of the students and teachers, who must decide how to care for him while he recovers. The movie is directed by Sofia Coppola, and the cast includes Colin Farrell, Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst and Elle Fanning.
