Blending dark comedy with period drama, Savage House is a satirical portrait of social climbing, privilege, and human folly, starring Claire Foy and Richard E. Grant.
Set in England in 1715 amid a devastating pox outbreak and the political turmoil of the Jacobite uprising, Savage House follows the wildly ambitious Sir Chauncey Savage and his wife, Lady Savage, as they desperately attempt to climb the social ladder and preserve their fading aristocratic status.
