Synopsis
An education is the story of a teenage girl's coming-of-age set in Britain in the early 1960s on the cusp of the strait-laced, post-war period and the free-spirited decade to come.
Directed by award-winning Danish filmmaker Lone Scherfig (Wilbur Wants to Kill Himself, Italian for Beginners) from a screenplay by Nick Hornby (High Fidelity, About a Boy) AN EDUCATION was adapted from a memoir by journalist Lynn Barber which originally appeared in the literary magazine Granta.
