Celina

Bag om Celina

In the late 1800s, Celina, a young girl aged fifteen, takes up work as a maid for the Hugo family in the Channel Islands, Guernsey. There she encounters the delicate balance between the professional and the personal, and the obligations upon her as her livelihood is at stake. Celina navigates a life of hardship and loss, but not without crucial moments of happiness and pride. In a voice full of the innocence of youth, her perspective offers a nuanced, potentially challenging portrait of the great French author. Celina perfectly captures the changing times in which she lived, riddled as they were with tuberculosis, destitution and political strife.
