Roden will star as Cleary’s wife Bridget. A dressmaker in Ireland in the late nineteenth century, Bridget’s life becomes much improved with the invention of the sewing machine. She is able to become more liberated and successful, making more money than her husband and her financial and personal success draws suspicion from her husband when Bridget is more liberated with her ideas and opinions as well. This leads to Bridget having to take on the impossible task of proving to her husband and everyone else that she is the real Bridget and not a mystical changeling.
