Elara is a genius telegraph operator who falls in love with a mysterious man she has never met, only knowing him through dots and dashes. When the "annoying" French operator visits her station in person, sparks fly before she realizes he is her digital pen-pal.
In 1872,Porthcurno, Cornwall, UK.19-year-old Elara(Elara Vance) sat in the noisy telegraph station at the edge of the ocean, tapping out Morse code faster than anyone else in England. She hated the operator at the French station across the water because he kept ending his official messages with annoying jokes, not knowing he was actually a Prince in hiding.
