SYNOPSIS
The Seagull. Based on the play by Anton Chekov, the film follows aristocratic actress Irina (ANNETTE BENING, 20th Century Women) as she pays summer visits to her bother Sorin (BRIAN DENNEHY, First Blood) and her son Konstantin (BILLY HOWLE, On Chesil Beach). On one occasion, she brings the successful novelist and her lover Boris Trigorin (COREY STOLL, Midnight in Paris). When Nina (SAOIRSE RONAN, Lady Bird), a free and innocent girl who lives on a neighbouring estate falls in love with Boris, he basks in her adulation while Irina is shunned by Konstantin, who loves Nina.
