Albert
Nobbs is a woman who has been disguising herself as a man for 30 years in order
to find work in the harsh environment that is 19th century
Ireland. He’s been working as a
dedicated hotel waiter, keeping himself to himself. He dreams of one day owning his own shop and
having a wife by his side, which he believes Helen, the hotel’s flirtatious
maid, would be perfect for.
One day though, he learns that the new house
painter, Hubert Page, is to share his room, but Hubert has a secret of his own,
which will change
Albert’s
life forever.
