In the aftermath of World War I, the life of an uptight head butler is turned upside down by the entrance of a free-spirited housekeeper in post-WWI Britain. This seemingly ordinary household staffing change leads to an unexpected romantic connection between the two protagonists, testing the rule-bound butler's world of manners and decorum he has so carefully constructed. As they navigate their newfound love, they are also faced with the growing political involvement of their employer in Nazi affairs, further challenging the butler's unwavering commitment to servitude. This evocative period drama delves into themes of tradition versus change, love against all odds, and the complexities of loyalty amidst the rise of a dark political force.
