A highly factionalized and stylized version of the real life aspiring writer Emily Dickinson is brought to life with modern sense and sensibility. Embarrassed by her own parents and shunned from society, Dickinson will stop at nothing to rebel against her strict background and make her voice heard through the magic of poetry.
