Atonement is an English drama film that follows the lives of young lovers Cecilia Tallis and Robbie Turner at the dawn of the Second World War. After the couple are torn apart by a lie constructed by Cecilia’s fanciful younger sister, all three of them must deal with the life-changing consequences. An evocative art piece was handmade to capture the narrative’s themes of war, personal guilt, atonement and the end of domesticity.
