The first teaser trailer for the upcoming lesbian romance "Carol" is unleashed for viewing pleasure. It begins with the first meeting between the two female leads, played by Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara, before it shows their deepening relationship.
In New York in the early 1950s, Therese Belivet is working in a Manhattan department store and dreaming of a more fulfilling life when she meets Carol Aird, an alluring woman trapped in a failing marriage. As an immediate connection sparks between them, the innocence of their first encounter dims and their connection deepens.
When Carol's involvement with Therese comes to light, Carol's husband retaliates by challenging her competence as a mother. And as Carol and Therese take refuge on the road, leaving their respective lives behind, a confrontation emerges that will test each woman's assumptions about herself and commitments to one another.
Directed by Todd Haynes based on Patricia Highsmith's novel "The Price of Salt", the drama premiered at Cannes Film Festival where Mara tied for the Best Actress award. Supported by Sarah Paulson and Kyle Chandler, it will next hit U.S. limited theaters on November 20.
