Story
Legendary filmmaker Mike Leigh returns to the modern world with a fierce, compassionate, and often darkly humorous study of family and the thorny bonds that bind us together. For the first time with Leigh since the multiple Oscar-nominated Secrets and Lies, the striking Marianne Jean-Baptiste plays Pansy, a fear-ridden, tormented woman prone to furious tirades against her husband, son, and anyone who looks her way. Meanwhile, her frivolous younger sister, played by Michelle Austin (Another Year), is a single mother whose life is as different from Pansy’s as their conflicting temperaments, which are imbued with a shared warmth from her salon clients and daughters. This sweeping film from this accomplished playwright takes us into the intensity of kinship, duty, and the most enduring of human mysteries: that even through hurt and hardship, we still find ways to love those we call family.
