Set during the First World War, “The Fox” is the story of Banford and March, two women who live and work together on a farm. Unmarried and in their late twenties, the two expect to remain spinsters and thus have settled into a routine life of farm-work. When a wily fox begins to make trouble on their farm, the pair set out to do away with it, but when March comes face-to-face with the fox, she finds she cannot harm it.
