In the early 1930s, letters began arriving in the small Italian city of Verona, addressed simply to “Juliet of Verona.” A caretaker took an interest, and began replying on Juliet's behalf. Word got out that Juliet was alive and well, and the small stream of letters began to steadily increase. Dear Juliet explores the extraordinary phenomenon of the Juliet correspondence, through the eloquence and poetry of the letters and the impassioned women who endeavour to keep the myth of Juliet alive.
