Based on the infamous true story of the English heiress who became a revolutionary. Debutante Rose Dugdale (Imogen Poots) enjoys a life of wealth and privilege, but her rebellious nature soon leads her down a militant path. Amongst the political turmoil of the 1970s, her sympathy towards the IRA’s conflict evolves into radicalisation, culminating in an armed raid on an Irish estate with three comrades. However, when her simple heist turns violent, is Rose prepared to face the devastating consequences?
Baltimore held its World Premiere at the Telluride Film Festival, followed by the UK premiere at London Film Festival. It is the latest critically acclaimed film from Christine Molloy & Joe Lawlor – the directors of Rose Plays Julie, The Future Tense and Helen – and stars Imogen Poots (Vivarium, Green Room) and Tom Vaughan-Lawlor (Avengers franchise, The Infiltrator).
