Soap

Synopsis

Arthur has spent 30 years working as a mechanic at the coal mine, but he's paid a high price; he is obsessed with washing. The film uses both high contrast black and white and colour imagery to explore how his job - and consequently the obsession that it has created - affects his social life and his relationships with his mistress and his wife.
