Alice and Vera's past love, a lesbian interracial relationship that, of course, is presented as the taboo romance it would have been in the 1930s, is told in flashbacks throughout the film."One of Gemma’s brilliant characteristics is that she’s super prepared, and that she will also try things and be spontaneous," Swale said.
