A PERIOD DRAMA BASED ON THE LIFE OF
THE WORLD'S GREATEST FOSSIL HUNTER
It’s 1830 and the scientific world is closed to women.
Mary, a prolific but destitute fossil hunter has recently
made another big discovery on the Jurassic Coast.
But she hasn't been credited, again.
Fuelled by passion and fury she intensifies her hunting on
the dangerous cliffs to seek the recognition she deserves.
