Legendary director 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. Reunited with Leigh for the first time since her multiple Oscar nominations for Secrets & Lies, the incredible Marianne Jean-Baptiste stars as Pansy, a woman troubled by fear and prone to furious tirades against her husband, her son, and anyone who stands in her way. Meanwhile, her quiet younger sister, played by Michele Austin (One More Year), is a single mother whose life is as different from Pansy’s as their opposite temperaments, brimming with the shared warmth of her salon clients and her daughters. This sprawling film from a superb playwright takes us into the intensity of kinship, duty, and that most enduring of human mysteries: Even in lives filled with pain and hardship, we still find ways to love those we call family.
