The Devil's Mistress

Angelica is born in 1623, when England is divided both politically and religiously, a time when political disobedience turned to revolution and civil war, and English history changed forever. It is the start of a road that will change inexorably not only Angelica's life, but all of those with whom she comes into contact, including the most important figures of this tumultuous time.

The people of the besieged city of Oxford, Angelica among them, are in a desperate situation. Devastated by the King's brutal betrayal, Angelica has been cast out of court, and finds herself destitute and starving. Meanwhile, divisions are beginning to split the Parliamentarians. Even Thomas Rainsborough and Oliver Cromwell are at odds on what to do with King Charles I. And John Lilburne vehemently attacks self-serving Parliamentarians profiting from the war.

The English Civil War is seen through the eyes of a resourceful, manipulative, and desperate 17-year-old girl who’d do anything to survive. Stars Michael Fassbender, Dominic West and Andrea Riseborough.
