Mia Hansen-Løve Prepping ‘If Love Should Die’ Biopic Of English Writer & Philosopher Mary Wollstonecraft
Mia Hansen-Løve has revealed her next film to be 'If Love Should Die,' a biopic of 18th century English writer and philosopher, Mary Wollstonecraft.
Slated to film in the United Kingdom, France, Scandinavia and Portugal in 2025, the project’s logline is as follows: On the eve of the French Revolution, an impoverished young Englishwoman makes the bold decision to leave her life according to the ideals of the enlightenment. Wollstonecraft is best known for her work A Vindication of the Rights of Woman, published in 1792, where she argued that women are not naturally inferior to men, even if they appeared so in her time because they lacked equal access to education. As great admirers of Mia’s work this will be the third film we’ve collaborated on with her, and we’re looking forward to bringing Mary Wollstonecraft’s extraordinary and pioneering life to the big screen for the first time through If Love Should Die.”
