The Ecstasy of Hedy Lamarr: Premiere's Season

Hedy Lamarr - A European emigré who found herself at the forefront of Hollywood’s Golden Age.

Lauded as the most beautiful woman in the world, her glamour was matched by a genius mind, and her development of Spread Spectrum technology would become the basis of the Blue Tooth technology we use today.

Yet despite the adulation, Hedy Lamarr trod a lonely path, withdrawn from friends and family, and plagued by insecurity.

The Ecstasy of Hedy Lamarr tells the story of a woman beyond the reach of the world, yet desperate to find a sense of freedom in normality.
