Outrageous [videorecording] / a Firebird Pictures production ; creator & writer, Sarah Williams ; directors, Joss Agnew and Ellie Heydon.
Public scandal. Political extremism. Personal heartache. Based on the true story of the Mitford sisters who played by their own rules with sometimes devastating consequences. Set against the gathering storm clouds of the 1930s, Outrageous is inspired by the lives of the aristocratic Mitford sisters six headstrong women who frequently made headlines around the world. Yet their lives would ultimately take very different paths from Nancy, who became a celebrated author and journalist, to Jessica, who rejected her inherited privilege and dedicated her life to revolutionary causes. A family saga like no other, this is the Mitfords as they really were: unapologetic, outrageous and utterly human.
