Synopsis

It's 1915 and the residents of a utopian commune in rural Pennsylvania are getting ready for Abigail's wedding. The commune, started by Abigail's crackpot visionary father, is an escape from the inhumanities of modern American life, but things here are not what they seem. As Abigail's marriage looms, she reckons with her role as a daughter and a woman, torn between her freedom and her family, between self-interest and community. Unfolding over the fateful course of twenty-four hours, Albion is a quiet, subtle exploration of one woman's self-discovery.
