DIRECTOR'S SYNOPSIS

"Shadowlands" is the very moving account of the true life relationship between respected British academic and author C.S. Lewis, and American poet Joy Gresham.  Lewis is most famous for his Christian writings, his adult science fiction series and the much loved Narnia chronicles for children.

This is a moving tribute to a couple whose faith, hope and love grew through adversity.
