Derbyshire will soon play host to Pamela Anderson, Dakota Fanning, and a bunch of other talented actors. Their upcoming movie, titled ‘Alma,’ will shoot in the ceremonial UK County starting in May 2026. Sally Potter will direct the feature, based on a story she wrote. The cast also includes Lindsay Duncan, Arinze Kene, Esther McGregor, Esme Creed-Miles, and Earl Cave.

The plot centers on a family that goes on an expedition to scatter the ashes of their mother, an archeologist. While navigating survivor’s guilt and sibling rivalries, the family pitches camp at one of the archaeologists’ sites. This is where buried tensions surface, a debate over English identity is unleashed, and arguments escalate into a pitched battle and a dawn showdown, underscored by the dead woman’s continued haunting presence.
