Watch Luella Miller

Lydia works as a seamstress and theatrical costume designer in a small rural New Zealand town. She yearns for the boy named Justin who lives next door, but doesn't dare allow her lustful feelings to become evident. One day she encounters a female drifter in her twenties named Luella who needs lodging and offers to help her. But little does Lydia realize that this stranger will betray her trust by trying to seduce the same young man she has her heart set on winning.
