Raised in a den of petty thieves ("fingersmiths"), plucky orphan Sue Trinder (two-time Oscar® nominee Sally Hawkins, The Shape of Water) agrees to help a con man (Rupert Evans, The Man in the High Castle) defraud a wealthy heiress (Elaine Cassidy, No Offence). Plans change when the two women fall in love with each other. This engrossing Victorian thriller is adapted from the novel by Sarah Waters.
