SYNOPSIS

Set in 1950s New York, two women from very different backgrounds find themselves in the throes of love in CAROL. As conventional norms of the time challenge their undeniable attraction, an honest story emerges to reveal the resilience of the heart in the face of change.

In an adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s seminal novel The Price of Salt, directed by Todd Haynes and written by Phyllis Nagy, CAROL speaks to the transforming nature of characters within the road movie genre.
