Winslet, who co-wrote the upcoming story with BAFTA-winning filmmaker Dominic Savage, plays Ruth, a mother who witnesses her teenage daughter Freya (played by Threapleton) "retreating into herself as she becomes more and more consumed by the pressures of social media," according to a press release.

The story is described as an "honest and authentic portrayal of a mother and daughter's increasingly strained relationship."

"The collaborative and sensitive way in which Dominic Savage goes about creating and filming each episode of 'I Am' is challenging, rewarding and completely immersive," Winslet said in a statement about the series. "The actors become these roles, and there is simply no room for pretending."

"I Am Ruth" is slated to air on Channel 4 later this year, according to the network.
