Prime Video has released the first trailer for The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart, an upcoming drama starring Sigourney Weaver.
Based on Holly Ringland’s best-selling novel of the same name, the seven-part series follows the life of Alice Hart (Fear the Walking Dead's Alycia Debnam-Carey), who is sent to live with her grandmother June (Weaver) on a flower farm following the mysterious death of her parents.
At the farm, which is also a refuge for women escaping abuse, Alice soon learns that there's some dark secrets about her family's past and her "journey builds to an emotional climax when she finds herself fighting for her life against a man she loves".

"Some people in this town don't like the idea of women running a farm," June says in the trailer after a young Alice arrives. "They don't like that we keep to ourselves and that we're different."
Although Alice soon settles into life on the farm with June and the other women who work there, she never stops questioning what really happened to her parents.
The trailer then flashes back and forth between young Alice and present-day Alice, who slowly but surely begins to piece everything together.
The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart, which is directed by Glendyn Ivin, also stars Asher Keddie as Sally Morgan, Leah Purcell as Twig North and Frankie Adams as Candy Blue.

Weaver was last seen on-screen in Avatar: The Way of Water playing Kiri, a teenage Na'vi who is Jake (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri's (Zoe Saldaña) adopted daughter.
Speaking to Digital Spy ahead of the movie's release in December, the actress revealed that she went to a school to prepare for her role.
"Luckily there was a long time to prepare," she said. "I went to high school classes and a few other things, so I could hear the pitch of their voices, and there's a big range of who an adolescent is between 12 and 15."
The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart arrives on Prime Video on August 4.
