Suds background

Suds

A 19th century London laundress dreams of upward mobility to win over a wealthy suitor, but in the process, she neglects a meaningful connection with someone from her own social class.

Amanda, a laundress with a vivid imagination, creates a romantic tale about a shirt brought to the laundry eight months prior by Horace Greensmith. She claims the shirt belongs to her fiancé, Sir Horace, who was banished by her father from their castle. Amanda awaits his return, while caring for Lavender, a horse she rescues from the glue factory. When Greensmith arrives for his shirt, Amanda begs him to pretend to be her lover, but he eventually rejects her, shattering her romantic dreams.
