Overview

Bill Nighy and Miranda Richardson star in a story of grief and celebrity, set in the intense spring and summer of New Labour's election victory and Diana's death. Nighy is a PR guru who has to stop and re-evaluate his world when his daughter threatens to leave his life, perhaps as revenge for his serial infidelities. Richardson plays a mother trying to bury her grief in an unconventional way after the loss of her young son.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A quietly devastating examination of how people in the grip of loss and self-deception navigate their relationships. Set against the cultural tumult of 1997, it traces two parallel stories of people struggling to connect with what, and whom, they've taken for granted.
