Mary Shelley 2017 HDRip XviD AC3-EVO

In 1814 Regency-era London, Mary Wollstonecraft-Godwin is a 16-year-old aspiring writer who works in the bookshop of her renowned father, writer William Godwin, who after the passing of his first wife, philosopher Mary Wollstonecraft, married Mary Jane Clairment, whose daughter Claire from her own first marriage becomes Mary's loving stepsister. When Mary and Claire travel to visit one of William's friends in Scotland, Mary meets 21-year-old poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, and interest instantly rises between them. After she returns to London, Mary unexpectedly meets Percy again when he appears at her house to ask William to take him on as an apprentice. Fascinated by Percy, Mary begins a torrid bohemian relationship with him despite the opposition of her father and stepmother, especially after they discover that Percy is married with a little daughter; he supports them but no longer loves his wife. Determined to be free and live on her own terms, Mary flees with Percy to live together accompanied by Claire, who wants to get far from her abusive mother. Their initial happiness turns to tragedy because of debts, poverty, and the terrible loss of Mary and Percy's daughter, who dies at only a few months old. Broken by suffering and pain, as well as a season living with rich, eccentric hedonist Lord Byron and doctor John Polidori, Mary turns into a shadowy being, becoming more and more obsessed with the idea of resurrecting the dead, while Claire has a stormy, painful romance with Byron. All these events will lead Mary, motivated by a Lord Byron's bet about who can write the scariest horror novel, to find her own voice and exorcise her innermost demons by writing "Frankenstein; or The Modern Prometheus". But when the prejudices of the time cause the novel to be attributed to Percy Shelley, Mary is forced to fight by claiming the novel as her own to prove that a woman can be as expert a writer as any man.
