Poor Things

The tale and fantastical evolution of Bella Baxter, a young woman brought back to life by the brilliant and unorthodox scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter. Under Baxter's protection, Bella is eager to learn.

Free from the prejudices of her times, Bella grows steadfast in her purpose to stand for equality and liberation.
