In northern France, Juliette grows up alone with her father, a veteran of the First World War. Chastised by the local community, the strong-willed young girl meets a sorceress who promises that scarlet sails will one day take her away from her village - a prophecy Juliette never stops dreaming of.
Committedly poetic, Scarlet builds on Italian director Pietro Marcello's unique mode of enchanted filmmaking, blending music, folklore and social history to conjure a magic-realist tale of female freedom and belief.
