Synopsis

As the United Kingdom is brought to its knees by COVID and Brexit, a working-class English teacher, lost in redundancy, poverty and alcohol in Manchester, takes us on a poetic and powerful journey through Broken Britain: as an abused boy under Margaret Thatcher in 1984, as a deranged student under John Major in 1992 and as a haunted man under Boris Johnson in 2020.

Additional Notes
This utterly unique working-class/art-house independent feature film has won over 60 international awards and nominations since May 2022, and has been hailed by the influential Jacobin magazine in New York as 'the best film about working-class Britain in years ... A political triumph'; by the esteemed Prospect magazine in London as ‘a bruising exhibition of working-class life’; by The Morning Star newspaper as ‘a complex kind of social surrealism’; and by the Socialist Party in England and Wales as ‘a masterpiece’.
