Nelly's Version
Legendary British actress Eileen Atkins stars as a woman with no memory or recollection, only knowing her own name.
Director: Maurice Hatton
Overview
Eileen Atkins stars in Maurice Hatton’s mysterious and beguiling drama. Nelly Dean (Atkins) is a woman who knows her own name, but nothing else – she has no memory or recollection.
